Farmer_Terry Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Anyone have a race suit they no longer need? I have a friend who might be interested. Mediumish sort of a size. Farmer Terry (and his car) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilR Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I have something in the loft I was given couple of years ago. Too big for me (5:10, 10stone) I will dig it out and check out the size. Give me a couple of days (I am in Brum and the loft is in Scotland!) Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer_Terry Posted June 6, 2007 Author Share Posted June 6, 2007 Hi Phil When you say it's too big, what sort of size would it fit? The friend I have in mind is around 5'10", but probably closer to 12 stone. Farmer Terry (and his car) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilR Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 It's been a while since I last tried it on. I will be back up north tomorrow afternoon and I will measure it/try it on again. I will let you know the measurements ASAP. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilR Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 The details at last Make: Zapelli Size: Large Colour: Navy blue with Black chest and back panels Inside leg: 30inch (76 cm) down to top of ankle elastic Under arm pit width: 23 inch (58cm) so must be 46 inch chest size? Way too big for me Condition: As new, I think he said it was used once or twice carting. I can email pctures on request Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer_Terry Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 Phil - thanks a lot for this, I will pass it along. However, I have done a search on Zipelli race suits, and they appear to be kart suits. My race suit is multi layer Nomex, i.e. fireproof, and has an FIA approval badge on the collar. Which do you think yours is? Kart or Race? I could still be interested, it's just that a kart suit is typically £50-£60 where a race suit is nearer £200. (Don't feel the need to dash off to Scotland again, lets see if my friend is interested in something this size, and we'll take it from there). Edited to say - Said friend may be on holiday in Spain at the moment, so it may take a day or two to get back to you. Depends on how often he picks up his email on holiday!).

PhilR Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I would say it is a Kart suit. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer_Terry Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 Phil - just to let you know that this is still alive. I haven't heard from my mate in Spain yet, but he should be back next week as we are supposed to be at Cadwell on Tuesday.
