Non-loud colors strongly preferred but I might settle for a hot pink one for the right price if time is running out

I'll need it shipped to a Miami address, I can have money paypal'd to you.

Need a HANS device to go with it?

I have a blue G-Force single layer - meets SFI 3-2A/1 but its 3XL.

Shipping from Canada tends to be a few more $$$'s but let me know.

Unfortunately it has to be an X-large (AKA European size 60) or European size 62, large is definitely too small and 3XL is waaaay too big...don't need a HANS but I might get some gloves.

Hmm just noticed a Sparco 2-layer suit for sale locally, $300 for the right size...it's more than I need in layers and probably more than I need to pay. Not a big fan of the bright blue either...but local demand for these is likely to skyrocket soon. Maybe I should buy it, and if I see something better I could resell it easily.

You can get used suits with sponsor logos on them for pretty cheap from Race Image.

http://www.raceimage.com/

They usually have a pic of the SFI tag on there. They're going to be multi-layer suits.

Thanks, I knew there was another site that sold used race suits I was forgetting. I want to avoid wearing layers I don't need because of the HEAT but I won't rule out a multi-layer suit.

If you can find a multi-layer real Nomex suit it will be more breathable than a single layer Proban (or other coated fabric) suit.

I can't use Proban anyway, Nomex is specifically required and Proban is specifically forbidden in the rules.

do they make you wear nomex underwear if you have a single layer suit? i think that's what lemons does. which is why i got a 2 layer.

If you need some size 11 nomex shoes, let me know. I have some nice once for cheap that only have 2 races on them (too big/wide for me). Send me an email if interested :)

I don't need Nomex underwear with a 1-layer, but no melty stuff allowed.

I think I'm gonna go with the Sparco 2-layer suit for sale locally. The other used stuff I can find that meets the spec is also 2 or more layers, mostly 2-piece and only $50 less at most. Add shipping and the price is really close.

Safety standards are due to be updated soon, but a 2-layer Nomex suit will definitely meet the requirements for track days.

I use size 12 shoes for driving, my old driving shoes were 11.5 and were uncomfortably tight. I know lots of cheapass racers here though so I'll keep it in mind if any are looking for shoes

Well I'm back looking to import a suit, I narrowly missed the one available locally. I see some on raceimage that could work though.

(BTW: Still looking for one even though its June, but at least track days haven't started back yet so I'm not missing out.)

Ordered this from raceimage today:

Was looking for a 1pc for "futureproofing" against rule changes but 2pc suits are currently allowed so I hope they won't change that...with the discount the grand total was less than the listed price.
