Safety as a System (SaaS)

If you’ve been following along with our previous episodes, you’ll note that we’ve been focusing on what it takes to get involved in Motorsports. We’ve covered everything from picking the right Starter Car, to getting ready for your first event and different programs and organizations that exist in this community.

And on tonight’s episode, we continue this talk-track as we dig in deeper… talking about the question that’s always on everyone’s mind: SAFETY. And with us we have returning guest Mike Crutchfield on behalf of the GTM coaches, along with our special guest Mark Francis from OG Racing, one of the largest Motorsports Safety distributors in the US – to discuss a concept we call “SAFETY AS A SYSTEM.” (SAAS)

In our discussion with Mark, we cover topics like:

Steering Wheels. Wheel Sizes, Leather vs Suede
Belts, Harnesses and Seats. 4pt… 5pt vs 6pt.
Fixed vs Adjustable Seats
Proper Head and Neck restraints. Hans & Simpson Hybrid
What is “equal restraint”?
How to shop for racing gear? – Picking the appropriate helmet for you.
