Race Suit repairs
I need to get a new zip fitted to my race suit, I have a replacement from Sparco to fit, I was going to use AWS in Kent but they seem to have closed, anyone got any experience of good quality repairers for this type of work ?
(might even get back out there this year if things work out )

Re: Race Suit repairs
Jays used to do jobs like this. Don't know if they still do.
Would be great to see you out and about again!

Get the tummy in the zipsuit to accelerate across the hillclimb start line. Or face a steward's penalty for not being secure.

I have some fireproof cotton thread . You would need this to stay with the rules.
Spare reel available for a small drink.
