Arm restraints - what to go for?

[Shortshift]

Thinking about a pair of arm restraints (just trackday use, but, you know...).  Can anyone recommend a particular brand or model?

Ann Summers do some nice faux fur lined ones

Most of the ones I've seen people using are Caterham supplied.

 I have a pair I don't use which you are welcome to, but you do need the 6 point harness as they connect to the crutch straps (not an AS reference).

Thanks Mike.  I have Schroth belts with two underseat/crutch straps that come together into a single connector at the buckle - so the buckle is a five-point device.  Would that work?

If so, please let me know how much you'd like for them.

Hello James, I think I probably mislead you there. It's a while since I used them, and then it was with a 6 point CC harness. Now I've had a little remember and a trip to the garage to check it out on my 4 point harness, they just loop over the shoulder belt buckles before they're clicked in. I can take them to Cadwell if you want to try them. Small donation to club charity will be fine.

Hi Mike

Yes please - bring them to Cadwell and we acn take a look.  Very happy to make a RaD donation if we go ahead.

Hi again Mike

Thanks for the straps; as you know, I didn't get round to trying them at CP but I will adjust them (and get them sussed out) before my next trackday outing and see how I get on with them, then.

Donation made to RaD as agreed!

Cheers

James
