Jerry,
The fact that your configuration requires that your chin be on your chest, head bent forward, is a reason for the requirement. Research by the medical profession has shown that the head, neck and spine must remain in a straight relationship to reduce the possibility of a basel skull injury.
With that said, at last Friday's board meeting Roy Creel gave a report on his findings from the PRI show. He said that Hans is currently developing a 40 deg. product. Most encouraqging is his comments that the manufacturer of the Defender is willing to work on a one-on-one basis to develop a custom unit. They are located in El Cajon, CA. Sorry, I do not have any contact info for them right now. Roy mentioned that some San Diego racers plan to take their cars to the factory for test fittings. A 'liner like Kent's will be a good example of our lay down type of car.
