I can only reason that it's to keep the industry spinning and to treat suckers like me like a cash cow.
Anyhow, this leaves me with a really good and clean set of Momo nomex race overalls that I can't use, they are a 2 layer quilted style, in blue and to the previous FIA 2000 spec. Size is 56, but this translates into fitting me at 6 foot tall, 34 waist and 40 chest. Would fit someone a bit fatter as I prefer mine loose as you need some extra space for when you sit in the car.
As above, still valid for other events such as hill climb, sprints and rally (I will check rally just to be sure) , or even just trackdays, so if anyone needs a set then id like £50 for them.
The entry level latest spec that I now have to buy, that are no different to the ones above as far as I can tell, start at £300.
