Until the rumors started in the fall it was nothing I ever thought about. As I looked into it I found that the only purpose of the neck collar was for fire protection of the neck not to keep the head stable, which is what I thought. I bought a Z tech hans because it was adjustable and I figured the mandatory would come soon. I put mine on once I get in the car and after the GAineville races I was able to get everything off as I went down the return road like I did before. You still have decent head movement from side to side and up and down. What confused me the most was I could look down more then with the neck collar so I thought what good is this thing. So I read more about the Hans devices and there main purpose is to keep your head from launching off your shoulders in the event of an issue on the track.
