Add Article To List

Frank G. from EMi joined up with Jeremy from Speedway Motors to demonstrate how to properly measure for a race suit. Frank opens up with a few tips, such as making sure you have a soft tape measure and taking a deep breath before recording measurements.

Throughout the video, Frank goes over taking measurements on the following:

  • Chest
  • Waist
  • Hip
  • Inseam
  • Arm
  • Shoulders

With this information, you can refer to the sizing charts listed below to select the suit that will fit and protect you the best. Frank mentions that in the video, Jeremy didn’t fit the suit correctly in all areas due to his measurements. In this instance, Frank suggests selecting the next larger size.

With the correct size of suit you need, now it’s a matter of finding the right one for you. For that purpose, you can browse the large selection of racing suits available at Speedway Motors by clicking here.
