Default WTB: Used Racing Suit & HANS Anchors

Hey Racers,

I'm going to be entering my first ever race this December down in Road Atlanta in the 24hr LeMons race - beyond excited!

That said, I'm gearing up and looking to not break the bank on the equipment acquisition.

So, per title, I'm looking to see if anyone has a used racing suit they are interested in selling. I'm looking for a multi-layer suit so I don't have to buy Nomex undergarments (SFI 3.2/A5 rated or greater required).

I'm 5'11, 175lbs.

HANS Anchors - CHECK! Thanks shzzle!

I live in Ottawa but am in Montreal/Toronto often enough that location isn't a big deal, to make a deal!

Cheers!
-Jonathan

Also looking to get some lightly used fire-retardant racing shoes if I can come across the right pair. I'm usually a 9.5 or 10 in a regular shoe size.

Finally - if anyone has a set of HANS anchors for my helmet, that would save me spending on a new set and I'd be interested in those as well!

If you need that standard 10mm HANS post anchors, i've got a set in packaging lying around somewhere. Let me know if that's the style you're looking for and still need them.

Hi Shizzle,

Yes, like these:

Posts for SA helmets.

If you have them, I'll take 'em! Looks like no local suppliers carry and it will save me having to order from US!

Tried Kijiji for the helmet yet? SA helmets are harder to find but worth a try. That's where I got the one my son uses for karting. Was used by a lady maybe twice and it was only $50 (Snell rated).

I already have a helmet, have had one for years for DE.

Just need the HANS anchors for it!

I wish the Lemons had races in Canada. Chump Car has become big bucks and I love the attitude.

^ Chumpcar is a ton of fun. Even with some teams spending big, everyone seems to have a great time. Hopefully we'll be going down to do Sebring and Barber in December.

I have an extra suit that I bought for a.... chump race a few years ago. I used it a few times and then bought a lighter one. It's a black Oakley (Sparco), size 58. Probably too small for you though, I'm 5'9".

I would sell it for $800. Not cheap, but it can still come in handy to me.

You'll have a blast.
