Default safety gear

I agree with Phil... You never ever want to have to use it.... BUT.....

Mate, buy the best you can afford.. I'd be going 3 layer 1 piece plus a very very good helmet and then keep going till your credit runs out! It need not be driver error that causes an issue...Sometimes its just the racing gods that like to have their say...

There are 3 piece suits ex NASCAR on USA ebay 2nd hand that are great buys.. If you want to try mine on to get an idea of what the different manufactures sizing is no probs. I have a PUMA and an OMP. I'm sure Ash wouldn't mind you trying on his either. If you want to run your car at the track definitely take your safety seriously. I know its hard as its alot of coin when starting out but thats the way it rolls I guess.

Let me know if you want a hand. I'm OK mates with Ryan Mcleod who owns Racer Industries and I'm sure he will look after you if you want some gear.
