Fingers crossed I'll make the July 1 MRA,
Tyres and a new driving kit and I'm ready to rock!
Have a single layer suit from drifting, don't think it's up to spec...
Trying to mount my seat lower so my helmet doesn't rub on the hardtop this week

Depends. This is MRA, I am not sure what their requirements are.
On the other hand, there is the question of what specs YOU want ...

I'd be happy in one layer nomex and some long johns, I'll shoot off another email.
I'd love a new suit regardless, but racing on a shoestring budget.

Scotty,
I have a 1 layer revolution type suit, did 1st round 2011 and was told need a 2 layer before next round.
Jumped onto demon tweeks (uk shop/website)
Bought a sparco 2 layer cams compliant suit, delivers within 5 days for $412aud!!!
Same suit is about 1k-1.2k here

I think the 2 layer entry level suit from rpm at guildford is about $600
i got boots, gloves, suit, socks and balaclava for $1000 from them

Was that the one for sale on my105? red NA6?
If so, I knew the previous owners.
Good to see even more new blood come in.
might even bring the wife and my new daughter down for a weekend away! Might be a bit cold though..!

Will be good to have someone else to race
