Description
The Simpson Racing Hybrid S stands alone as the only Frontal Head Restraint (FHR) on the market proven effective for use with standard 3-point harnesses. While most head and neck restraints require a 5-point racing harness, the Hybrid S provides professional-grade safety to driving instructors, manufacturing test engineers, and track day enthusiasts who utilize 3-point seatbelt systems.
Developed in partnership with Detroit auto manufacturers and third-party tested to FMVSS208 standards, the Hybrid S is engineered to significantly reduce neck tension and impact forces. The high-quality carbon fiber construction ensures a lightweight and durable frame, while the low-profile design eliminates the "high back" found on other devices, preventing snagging on roll bars during emergency exits. This model is equipped with a Quick Connect (QC) system for fast, effortless attachment and detachment from the helmet.
