The back of her helmet was cracked, so I said you must have been looking out the passenger window. She said YES I remember I was looking at the wall coming and thinking OH F*#K! After the impact her head must have whiplashed back and hit the roofline above the drivers window.
Yes she "OWNS" a hans!

Man, that is crazy. The fact that she cracked her helmet and gave herself a concussion is honestly terrifying. It takes a hell of a shot to make that happen.
These cars are FAST. No matter how you spin it, they're fast. Things go wrong in a hurry... and often times when you aren't really expecting it (like an out lap).
I don't mean to keep throwing questions at you. I try to learn all I can from things like this, especially when it's a car I am so familiar with. If you don't want to discuss, please just tell me to shut up.
How far moved are the seats from where they were? Was there a sub-belt hooked up? I am trying to remember, but even at 6'1", I don't know that I could have gotten even remotely close to hitting that part of the roofline with my head. It seems like a long way to go.
I'll say it again, most importantly, I'm just glad she's ok.
