Greg,
Any car disabled on the course where your view would be impeded would be a chance for this type of injury. Especially so in our cars as we are so low that our viewing range is very limited (Spokane Back Straight over the rises). That or a pick situation like the one that happened at Daytona in the Grand Am/ALMS race pretty sure Memo was happy to be wearing one.
So i say that every track as a chance to cause the type of injury that the HANS tries to prevent as a t-bone is going to hurt about the same as a concrete barrier.
And if its to hard to get out of your car with a HANS on then you need a bigger opening in your car. Or do as we do and race without those silly roofs.
