Re: The LFT Tech R3 Head and Neck Restraint system thread

^ Sure! No problem.
The third pic in Gerardo's sequence also captures the back padding (in the upper left hand corner, under my white helmet). LFT Tech supplied the black layer (about 1/2" thick). I tried using only that black layer on the 1st day and I pretty much crushed my spine, as the R3's back member kept making contact with the seat, therefore transmitting every shockwave to my vertebrae (along with rocking side to side). I built up the padding, using the black layer as a template, so that the back member would nestle in snugly. This worked out fine, but then all the layering placed added stress on my lower back. Long story short, it did not work. As mentioned above, LFT Tech was very prompt to provide a full reimbursement (along with paying for shipping), so I can't be upset with them. I only wish I wasn't some sort of test dummy for the R3 (that's essentially what had happened) on a Skip car.
