COUNTERFEIT HANS POST ANCHORS – TRACKSIDE UPDATE
Atlanta, Georgia - August 21, 2009: HANS Performance Products has been trackside the past few days investigating the counterfeit HANS Post Anchor problem reported earlier.
COO Gary Milgrom has been focused on circle track racing, while Sales Director Howard Bennett has been at the drag strip.
"I must have seen about 150 helmets and exchanged over 50 sets of counterfeit anchors," said Milgrom. He continued, "On the whole, I’ve not had to touch any Simpson, Bell, Arai or Stand21 helmets—they’ve already been fitted with genuine HANS Post Anchors."
Simpson, Bell, Arai and Stand21 have had substantial long-standing relationships with HANS Performance Products. They are among the 200 authorized dealers throughout North America that receive direct factory support.
Bennett said, "We've had a lot of support and thanks from crew chiefs, teams and racers for putting safety first. To ensure all racers have confidence in their safety equipment, we’re continuing our program to replace any counterfeit Post Anchors free of charge."
