Recommended Posts

Hey gang. I am hoping to be going thru comp school in March in the Mid Atlantic and need a drivers suit. My brother inlaw is a Nav in the Air Force and has extra flight suits. I have seen a few people use them in different race groups. I'm just looking for help to make sure that I have the proper rating to make this happen. Can anyone give any help or direction to make sure it will work?

 

Thank you in advance!!!!!

Nope. They do not have the proper SFI and/or FIA ratings. I'm familiar with the Nomex flight suits and they are built quite different (much lighter) than a racing suit.

 

If money is an issue, you might want to consider one of the cheaper G-Force suits:

I use a G-Force 505 and like it.

 

Good luck!
