Well, In a way I stand somewhat corrected. Earlier this year there was a member advisory suggesting that "only SFI rated devices should be purchased" and said that come the year that non-SFI rated devices would not be approved. This also said any devices that attach to the harnesses would not be acceptable. (NO Hutchins, no ISAAC).
When I look in the 2007 GCR, I can't find any of this language, so somehow it is apparently not finalized. It still just says "head and neck restraints are suggested" or something to that effect. (p 76). I like the ISSAC, but i don't like three latches to hit to get out of a burning car. I just want to do one to get out of the belts and be on my way. If they could figure out a better way to get out of the thing, it would be good. For that matter, I think HANS should buy ISAAC just to get the damper system and put it into the HANS or R3 designs... jim ----- Original Message ---- From: Joe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, December 8, 2006 10:26:16 AM Subject: Re: [F500] why you need a head and neck restraint! Is there a list of what is legal in SCCA ? My understanding is that SCCA rejected the SFI standard. I've been looking at the ISAAC Device. It surpasses the Hans in the tests, but because of the 2 release points it won't get the SFI sticker.
