Will also be looking at a HANS in the next few weeks. Not sure if the 30 degree angle (i'm 200 lbs +) is more important than what looks to be a more comfortable sport II. Any thoughts?

@ Lopro: I got mine from CSC Racing www.cscracing.com They seem to be one of the bigger importers/sellers of HANS devices in the GTA.
I think that they all come with sliding tethers now.

When i contacted them about the Hanz they just asked me 3 questions "What is the size (around) in CM of your neck?" After that they asked me what I was using it for to get the degrees the back piece should be - an then asked "What do you want to spend" The rest is history. Such an easy thing to buy, Or CSC really made it easy. I guess when I ordered I got thinking yes this is a safty device and they all work just as well (weight being the only differences that I could see after few weeks of research) they get quite expensive to save a few pounds. Sport is 2.5lbs SPORT II 2lbs and PRO 1.5lbs
When your used to carrying a heavy weight on your sholders - may as well just go with the lightest on the wallet.

I have a Sport I (30 degree) for open wheel cars and Pro (20 degree) for closed. Both do the job - though carbon fiber of Pro is very nice (much lighter and a beautiful piece). Any such device is highly recommended.

You get one, Chris? There has to be TONS of shops around you. I don't have squat within a hundred miles of me![Mad](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/mad.gif)
I'm 6'2, 215. Not barrel chested, but not scrawny either. 30 deg recommended for what I've read, but 1) my head naturally sits a bit flexed. And with the GT2 seats, which I've been told aren't the most HANS-friendly, I may be better off with a 20 deg??
Why don't they make the Sport II in 30?? The size of the rear on the Sport has me concerned about ingress/egress from the car.
