FAQ

What is a head and neck restraint system?
A head and neck restraint (HNR) is a safety device worn over the shoulders and attached to your helmet. It prevents sudden, severe head movement in a crash, greatly reducing the risk of neck and spine injuries.

Are head and neck restraints required for my type of racing?
Most racing organizations (NHRA, SCCA, NASA, IMSA, etc.) require SFI or FIA certified HNR devices for cars exceeding certain speeds or participating in specific classes. Always check your rulebook before entry.

Which brands and types do you offer?
We carry HANS, Simpson, NecksGen, Schroth, and other leading brands in a variety of models, including traditional yoke devices, hybrid foam systems, and youth-specific designs.

How do I choose the right size and model?
Measurement is based on neck, chest, and helmet size. Refer to our sizing charts or contact us for personalized fitment help. Consider comfort, ease of use, and helmet compatibility when choosing.

Will these devices work with any helmet or harness?
Most modern HNRs fit standard helmets with M6 anchor posts and work with 5-, 6-, or 7-point racing harnesses. Double-check your helmet and harness are compatible for proper function.

Are head and neck restraints comfortable to wear?
Today’s systems are lightweight, anatomically shaped, and feature padding to maximize comfort, even on long stints. Many offer adjustable tethers for fine-tuning mobility.

How do I maintain or clean my HNR system?
Clean surfaces with mild soap and water. Inspect tethers, anchors, and padding for wear before every event, and replace as needed.

Can youth or smaller drivers use these systems?
Yes! Youth and small-frame sizes are available—see our selection or contact us for help choosing the right model and fit for younger racers.

What if my device arrives damaged or doesn’t fit?
Customer satisfaction is our priority. If your HNR arrives defective or doesn’t fit, contact us within 7 days for a prompt exchange, replacement, or refund.
