.....as far as the lawsuit goes the only thing I've heard is on other boards. From those, the lawsuit has been dropped but dropped in a way that can be brought again.

....as far as the halo seat goes, ABSOLUTELY! The devices are best served when the body is restrained to it's fullest extent. HANS HAS added lips on the side to help keep the belts in place, and Schroth has taken it a step further by patenting their own non-slip surface under the belts of their HANS. I'm sure a lot of us have seen the video of Delphi testing where the HANS slips out of the belts, but if not it is [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkB9D8eFLLg[/ame]
But what you will notice is how far the body slips inside the belts even though it stays "relatively" in them. Just think how far the Isaac device would be pulled out of sync with your head attached. This isn't good for the HANS, but it isn't good for ANY system that is unsupported with a halo system, the Isaac included. So if I'm going to have the much-needed halo system and a net installed, I'd rather have an sfi-rated device that will be legal for my money, as well as single-release capability AND presents no danger to my neck.

Here's how it should work in frontal crashes only;

And here's the side with a proper halo seat;

......and again to address how safe we are in road cars compared to racing cars, an SFI device is more effective than an airbag, but your road car DOES utilize them to restrain the passengers.

I know all of this safety stuff is expensive and a pain in the rear, but racing is supposed to be the coolest thing you do in your life, not the LAST thing you do in your life. I've been unfortunate enough to be around a lot of pain and suffering of those affected and left behind by major racing crashes in my pro career, but I've also been fortunate enough to be around during a major safety awakening and been to seminars held by NASCAR with some of the best info available in the business. I'm just trying to pass on the info I was fortunate enough to learn to help everyone race as safely as we know how right now.
