Racing Overalls

Ok this may sound daft. and probably is;

I need to buy some racing overalls (regs etc... and just plain comfort.) and was looking for something fun. I would like a replica 1950's 60's set (FIA and Nomex) but can only find Gulf and such like.

Does anybody know if a replica C6-R overall exists somewhere (without names of people fabulously more talented - and paid - then me)

PM me if the supplier is not a sponsor - cheers.

Re: Racing Overalls

Have you checked with some of the helmet suppliers like Helmut City?

A lot of times, the same oufits that sell the good helmets also sell quality race clothes. I think I bought my fire jacket from them.

OK, I tried a search and found a Helmut Hair designer in Munich. I guess that is wrong!?

Sorry, my bad. I spelled it wrong. Google 'Helmet City'.
Click on 'Automotive Accessories' and then click on 'Driving Suits' in the scroll down.

That was a test randomly administered by Mike to make sure you are paying attention. I think you passed.

Later,

Re: Racing Overalls

Check the classifieds in RACER MAGAZINE and many ads in the content. You can easily order up a Ron Fellows style suit or even Lewis Hamilton if you have the bucks. Its kind of like the old horsepower saying....how much power do you want or how "safe" do you want to be !!
