ATLANTA, Sept. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- HANS Performance Products has been granted a
temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction and expedited discovery in
a suit against Impact Racing Products.  The SFI Foundation's motion to become
a party in HANS' action against Impact has also been granted.  The orders
relate to counterfeit HANS Post Anchors that have been discovered at the track
in recent weeks.

The Federal Court orders require Impact to advise its customers that Post
Anchors they have received from them may be counterfeit.  Impact is also
required to preserve all related products and business records to help
identify the source of the counterfeit parts.

Post Anchors are a vital part of a racer's head and neck restraint safety
system.  Genuine HANS Post Anchors provide a robust and reliable latching
method to connect racers' HANS Devices to their helmets.

"We wanted to take this opportunity to tell all racers about our continuing
program to replace any counterfeit Post Anchors free of charge," said HANS CEO
Mark Stiles.  "Details of the program, other information and updates are
available at www.hansdevice.com, by calling us directly at 1-888-HANS-999, or
by contacting any of our 200 authorized North American factory-trained
dealers."

HANS is represented by the law firm Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP.

The HANS Device is the #1 choice for performance, #1 for vision and #1 for
winners.
