Race Suit
peter030371 - 20/1/20 at 03:34 PM

I have finally given in and admit the race suit I got from here in 2017 is too small, the waist is fine but the legs are a couple of inches too short (I am 6'2" ) and it makes my eyes water every time I bend down

So I have purchased a new one in a larger size and I am now looking to move the older one on. Its a few years old now but has only been used for 2 track days and 2 track evenings since new and still looks as good as new.

Its looks like this




and is a size L(56)




Its FIA approved but was made in 2011 so not sure if its valid for MSA events or not. It is certainly more than good enough for track days and Javlin Sprint series.

Original supplier is here http://www.plays-kool.co.uk/acatalog/RaceLidz_3_Layer_FIA_Race_Suits.html

I am looking for £135 and will send for free.

Whats the FIA date on the back? Most likely its 8856-2000, which is still current. So assuming its in good nick will still be valid.

Forgot to say its a size L(56) which would help any potential buyers.
