I really like my G-Force gear, 3.2A/5 Pants, jacket, gloves, neckbrace. It is on the lower end of prices and the quality/looks are great. I would love a Simpson Bandit helmet but just in the budget and I will be getting the gforce shoes soon.

I have a friend (Reboot on here) who has RCI brand stuff and it is very nice as well and has a good price.

Personally stay away from anything Impact racing has, they are having huge problems with SFI right now, and Simpson is just too expensive for my tastes vs what you get IMO.

Companies to check out IMO would be: G-Force, RCI, Stroud, DJ Safety

hope that helps some.

I've had nothing but good luck from my G-force gear, but I think I will be going Stroud this time around since I am upgrading all of my gear. They are one of the best out there.

I bought a gforce suit.. it fits pretty good, never had to test the ability to resist fire, hopefully never will. Shoes fit nice, soles wore alot more then I'd have thought they would have, otherwise I have no complaints.

Next time I have to buy one, I will look around again, and wouldn't feel bad about buying another one from Gforce.
