Looking at head restraints system.Last piece on safety list. Next gen seems to be popular choice. Anyone using,thoughts. If using other let me hear thoughts on those too.

Before I hear it yes need trailer in order to need any safety equipment,sorry going to have full safety equipment before going to track so its toss up.

I love mine. Easy to put on when sitting in the car. That said any of them will work so if possible try them on in a car. Everybody has different preferences so it is really subjective as to which one you might choose.

I have the Necksgen rev and my wife has the rev 2 lite. We’re both happy with them. Easy to put on, low profile. I don’t even know it’s rhere for the most part. Would never go back to a neck collar after wearing the Necksgen.

Same here. I feel much more secure in my belts also with the stiffness of the Necksgen on my shoulders.

I notice it after I get belted in and rolling up after being paired only because I tend to try and look around more. When I hit the waterbox I never think about it again until I am on the return road taking it off.

We got ours at PRI show last year. It was a very good deal. Just did paperwork there and they sent them out that week.

The Necksgen Rev from Jeg's is $469 for the med or lrg and the small is $375 with racer's discount. Probably as good as most. I don't know what SlickVic and do for you.

I had purchased the Hans with sliding tethers . I'm not happy with it , very uncomfortable an hard to un lip those quick release fastners on helment . Was at a nhra divisional race this spring , put down Hans for neck collar , tech guy checked was out of date like the seat belt rule , would not let me pass tech because it would have to be set in to re certify . I was able to dig out my ole neck collar in trailer to show them to enable to pass tech an race . Another $ grab , had purchased new a few years prior was only second time trying to use . I assume other brands that has been stated here also have date code recertification also ? I even was fitted for it , purchased off impact at us nationals along with helmet . But once you put on an get into car seems to put your head forward a little , feels uncomfortable to me . Maybe I'll look into the brand you guys are preferring on here .

I've used both in my dragster. Both were comfortable but I prefer the clips on the necksgen over the hybrid.
