Surviving a Rollover - how safety equipment saved life

Before starting Ringfreaks Nr.1 priority for rental race cars was safety, and after 8 years it still Nr.1! And for a reason - once safety equipment is needed, it must work!
In this video I am reviewing a rollover of one of our BMW F30 328i. Horrible accident which luckily ended up with just a scratch for a driver and crumbled metal art left for us at Ringfreaks. And even all our work was destroyed in seconds - we are more than happy that safety equipment did its job 100%.
Also in the end of the video I am showing how to properly use 6-point harness and helmet. Proper use of these makes all FIA and other safety features assist You most once things goes south.
I really hope, no one would ever suffer such accident - but it can happen if you are racing and you should be ready! Stay safe!

    great video and thanks for the safety brief.. very useful for everyone! glad the driver came out ok!.. the helmet is mostly important if you have a rollcage since it is closer to your head as well, the possibility of the shoulder strap loosening incase of an impact and your body moving 1cm could make all the difference between permanent brain damage or walking away safely. Always wear your helmet :D

    Very good content! That's why I bought my new track car with a full cage, harnesses and buckets; I do have one question though: I've heard people saying that wearing a helmet without HANS is actually worse because of the added weight on your head and therefore neck, what's your take on this?

    • @Ringfreaks
      @Ringfreaks Місяць тому

      Hi Julien! My take on this is - any helmet is better than no helmet. Even at very low speeds hitting your head to steel parts can have fatal consequences. Yes, added weight might add some grams to the neck - but we are already then talking about very hard accidents where many other injuries will occour.

      You can also make an account online - add credits and once you arrive at the ring - ask for a green hell card connected to your account. Cards work better at the barrier and in my opinion - less risk of loosing your phone and faster to handle while entering the track.
