    This may be regional but this past year we were required to run a 'HANS' sticker (if you had one) by the driver window opening to signal to workers that they will need to be prepared for those products during extraction. Tough to see in this picture but the RX-7 of Steve Ulfelder has one above the T in Flatout and the E36 of Dave Maynard has one above his name on the rear glass. My car now has an 'R3' in a similar spot.

    Last year while the grid workers were doing their final walk through, they noticed me hooking up my Isaac (Link). They had never seen one and wanted me to come by at lunch and do a demo. they were thinking more in the line of learning it to help get drivers hooked up, but I would think ALL flaggers, grid, pit workers should have some knowledge of the different systems..... If I was in a bad situation, I would want the first worker there knowing what kind of system I wear. When they get to my burning car, I want them to have his/her knife ready to cut off the Isaac. No screwing around trying to figure out what system I have.

    But I'm in the same region as Andy and had not heard that about the decals (although I do have one just for the reason I stated above).


    As far as the steering locks go, I assumed it was for easier towing and such, not for the potential of failure.

    Ya, I listed it because he seems to be a NE guy who may run in the NARRC / NERRC / NYSRRC.

    I thought the H&N Sticker was if you were using the smaller Schroth belts? with a Hans.

    I ran a Hans all year and never had a sticker. do I need to get one?

    Thanks

    That’s right. My understanding is that tech wants to make an effort to label cars that have belts that are only legal with the use of a Hans so that grid will know to check to make sure you are not going out without the Hans.
    It is not enforceable and is not mandatory.

    It is both mandatory and enforcable if it is in the supps, neither if it isn't.
