100% agreed with the other "no harness without a rollbar" comments.

I also have a Redline Rennsport bar. And I also use 3" straps with my HANS.

I bought John Hajney's roll bar, and recommend both it and John to you.

Is John still operating? Having seen him around these parts for some time.

I now have a full cage since this thread was started so things are a bit different.

He was as of this time last year, as that's when I bought mine.

I haven't seen him in a while, either. I think the last time was Mosport in 2010.

Have to disagree with you on this one. The car hit with more of a side impact where the Hans is all but useless. The safer barrier absorbed a significant amount of the energy from the collision. Also you can see where her head moves side ways and is restrained by the seat.
