Racing suit etc.

[lautray]

Went on a reconnaissance with Stav & Dunc this morning for a race suit & other goodies. We each ended up with a pretty good package from Race & Rally Motorsport at Greenacre. Great service from Sue. Kit consisted of a double layer race suit (approved FIA 8856-2000), race boots, nomex balaclava, nomex socks, leather gloves. A good value package imo :yep:. Would recommend a look for people wanting to get kitted out.

Here are a few pics:

Fark, you 3 are getting serious!!!

Soooooooooo, a good value package at ?????????? Dollars and ??????? Cents??

If I ever need Nomex, Im buying a Nomex flight suit brand new surplus from the states, same same with the balaclava.

I just put some AP Racing big brakes on the SS so Im about 24 months behind you guys :lmao:

Package is $899. If you add up the cost of the individual items, it is great value. The suit alone is $668.

Good going with the AP's Troy :bravo:.

[BOMI]

WOW :eek: thats a great price, I was thinking in the thousands!! :yep:

Good stuff.

The AP's well, lets just say they are no chop at the moment as I ran our of DOT 5.1 and there is air in there...and a chair aswell.

Will try to get some more in the morning, but Im hitting it tonight so I doubt Ill be doing much more in the morning other then sleeping :headbang:

Interesting in that they make the suits on-site (at Greenacre) and you can get custom fitting done (which i need being a midget).

Thanks to Chis (for the tip on the great pricing) and Erik (for encouragement!) :bravo:

[DaveHAT]

Nice one fellows ... does this officially mean we got to call you guys boy racers? :lol:

When do the trackchat logos get embroided onto the race suits? :yep: :waving:

[FatBoy]

Paul, the suits are two layer, box stitched.

You did pretty well then Dunc, that's a great package at that price... :yep:

[lautray]

May even get to try them out in August :up2sum: .

[Febs]

They do look like awesome packages. :yep: Well done guys.

I think an embroided TC logo would set it off quite nicely. :)

[BOMI]

Do you want a ban? The Aussie flag is all that I hold sacred!!!!!!!!! :yep: I am a protector of it, its part of my job!!

But I know you were joking, well Bundy bear says so, so its ok Brew (Bro) :lmao:

Cheers Eric and Dunc.

For those interested, I also picked up an extended 3 inch 6 point race harness for the Escort for $250.... Cheapest alternative I found out there was over $400 so I was happy to say the least.

I also bought a pair of side mount brackets for the Momo seat in the Escort.... Again a bargain at well under $100.

Troy, just so you know, we were very happy to buy Australian made gear and support our great country..... you can shout the three of us a patriotic beer next time we catch up yeah? :beer:

I'll be getting a post up soon with some photos of the Escort... Its at the workshop now getting primed for its maiden run with me at the wheel on August 4th.... Can't wait!

i knew i would get some bites with my comment lol, just winding you guys up:)

[NickS]

Damn ... you guys are getting serious, I don't know how you have the time !!! In between work, kids sport and family stuff I am lucky to get the car out once or twice a year.

So clearly plans afoot for things more serious than the occasional Wakefield day ... look forward to the super secretive drip feed of information.

:stick:

Nice pick up guys, the gear looks great.

[MY Racing 221]

Nice work guys, that's a great buy!
