    Default Shrinking Suits!!

    Yes, admit it, many of our suits got smaller over the off season.

    So now is the time to donate all that gear to our Second Gear program. We run this program in the Southeast to let drivers borrow all their safety gear except helmets so the cost to get started is smaller. All we ask is that they return the gear in the condition they got it in. Suits, gloves, shoes, etc are all needed. If you can help out shoot me a PM please.

    Thanks,

    Thats a great program Steve! Is it done on a per race basis?? If so, how can they comply with the "return in same condition" requirement? I'd think the sweaty aspect would be an issue without proper cleaning?

    Most guys, and girls, are using them for TT in our hillclimb series and track events. About 20% use them to go to RR school or their first races. Many have now gone on to road race and have their own gear. It is working very well. Depending on demand we let them keep them for a few races. After a while we expect them to get their own. No set rules, we just do what we can. Molecule and a washer go a long way.
