trackman...picked up a HANS device

After adding the seats and harnesses I decided to pick up a HANS device.

Any suggestions when first using it?

thanks

Smart move! Be particularly careful in the paddock area as your head probably will have a more limited range of motion left and right. You won't be able to pick up objects (kids, cars, stray dogs, etc.) with your peripheral vision as well as you used to be able to. You'll get used to it though and it shouldn't be an issue on the track if your mirrors are adjusted properly. Best,
