Default Why you need real safety gear at the track

Phil Grabow of Element Tuning had a major high speed off last weekend, some of you may have already heard. He clearly owes his life to the safety gear he had- 6 point cage, proper harnesses, and a HANS device. I for one don't plan on running timed laps on a track until I have at least that, plus a fire suppression system most likely. There's extensive discussion of how the off happened, the impact, what the equipment did for Phil's safety and in-car video in the thread. Play safe out there.
