Hello,

As per the title, I am entering my first sprint competition and need a suit. I am not the bank of England so I need to get one as cheaply as possible. Any ideas where I can look for a suitable item?

Would these be any good?

Linford Christie is selling one on ebay lol

Don't forget you'll also need fire resistant gloves too

PS DON'T get a kart suit, not fire resistant

Thanks for the replies. I am 5' 10" with a 47" chest and a tad under 16 stone. In other words I am short and tubby.

I'd try looking around size 58 then, you don't want them tight

And don't forget the nomex gloves, you'll need them too
