R3 Re-certification Sets New Standard in SFI 38.1 Frontal Impact Protection

The R3 modifications for 2007 have produced the lowest scoring SFI 38.1 head and neck restraint numbers in frontal impacts on the market.

(PRWEB) August 17, 2006 -- The R3 modifications for 2007 have produced the lowest scoring SFI 38.1 head and neck restraint numbers in frontal impacts on the market. The R3 now scores 30% below the competitor’s advertised neck tension in Frontal impacts and is second only to its sister part, the Hutchens Hybrid in the 30 Degree Frontal Impact. This is in addition to its superior side and multiple impact protection that it has always had.

LFT Technologies commitment to continuous improvement through R&D has lead to break troughs in the head and neck industry. The R3 is now more user friendly having a low top which allows for easier exit out of the race car. The 3” wide chest strap gives the wearer even more confidence in the security of the device while dissipating restraint load over a larger area. Lower tethers allow more side to side head movement along with increasing the amount of load transferred to the seat belts during impact. While the added “lip” helps to insure the shoulder belts stay on the device and on you for multiple impacts.

The R3 uses a simple foam back pad to “re-make” the back of your seat so that the device has a comfortable position in your race car. Easily the most comfortable device on the market, the R3 allows the seat belts to stay on your body for a safer, more reliable impact situation. The R3 is available for all types of seats and ages from 5 and up. It is also available in an “IN-SEAT” version.
