HANS anchors come with the screw that should fit. I do not know the thread.

Not to derail, but.... I will be joining the group meeting in Thurmont at around 130-2pm. See y'all there.

And I have a spare helmet with HANS anchors. It's small though. I'll bring it; if nothing else you can cannibalize the anchors.

There are little nuts that go in behind the fiberglass (or carbon fiber if you're so inclined). I have the HANS wrench packed to hold them while you loosen/tighten the screws.

For the record I wear an XL or XXL - yes my head/hair combo is HUGE. I think Michael removed the 3 points this week. Regardless I want to drive with the 5 points.

That's what I hate about this sport. Sooner or later it always winds up being about who has the bigger hair...sigh

Let it be known that there will be NO FOOD for anyone that does not give you a pass.

Default Last Minute Cancellation, Dammit!

Need to cancel and head south instead of north; proactively changed the oil ahead of schedule and found a bunch of "jewelry" in my filter. Lots of sparkly metallic bits. So I am driving south to Charleston to deliver the car to Autmetrics instead of joining you at The Glen.

Looking to cut my losses, so if someone would please rent garage 25, right next door to the Garage 24 Happy Hour Socials, it would be appreciated, thank you.

Be safe and have fun at WG.
