Keep Yourself in Place with NecksGen Harnesses and Seats

NecksGen is best-known for its REV Head Restraint Systems, and rightly so. But they also make race harnesses and seats that are well-worth a look, too. Let’s review.

Race Harnesses
NecksGen Race Harnesses are available in two styles:

"Pull down" harnesses have adjustable and removable attachment points on the shoulders for use with wrap-around or tabbed mounting hardware. They also have sewn-in attachment buckles on the waist.

"Pull-up" harnesses have adjustable-length straps at the waist that allow you to pull upward on the loose end to tighten. This makes them a good choice for tight-fitting cockpits and smaller cars.

The five-point harnesses are available with two or three inch wide shoulder and lap belts and a choice of cam-lock or latch-and-link latches. Harnesses with two inch belts are SFI 16.2-rated; harnesses with three inch belts are SFI 16.1-rated.

Competition Seats
Summit Racing carries several types of NecksGen Competition Seats. All feature durable, lightweight fiberglass shells and are FIA-homologated to 8855-1999 standards.

1000 Series seats are ideal for smaller classics or rally cars with limited cabin width, and weigh just 19.6 pounds each. They are available with fabric or vinyl covers.

4009 Series seats are a highback bucket with a 15 degree layback. They feature adjustable back and base cushions for superior comfort and support, plus black leather wear patches at the shoulder areas. The 4009HR seats have all the features listed, plus integrated head restraints for extra head and neck support. All are available in standard (22.440 inch) and wide (23.330 inch) versions and come with fabric covers.

4119HR Series seats are also highback buckets with a 15 degree layback, but are designed so you can attach the upper backs to your roll cage. This makes the seat more rigid for extra safety. Air ports in the lower seat back allow the use of a fan or NACA duct to blow in fresh air to reduce the driver’s temperature during competition. Other features include Energy absorbing foam in critical areas and FHR (Forward Head Restraint) compatibility.
