1980 listing is for a SPARCO NECK COLLAR. 

It is made of NOMEX III, which is flame resistant and does not melt.

"Sparco’s Nomex® collars feature state-of-the-art designs and technology. This anatomically designed 360-degree collar offers safety and comfort at a reasonable price. Extensive testing by a panel of specialists showed how effective this collar can be at supporting the neck during crash tests. It features variable density padding to provide firmer support where the helmet is supported and softer support under the driver’s chin. A unique rear “spoiler” reduces the weight of the helmet on the back."

My late husband had raced a full season of Formula Ford back in the early 1980's, a few years before we met.  If you are looking at this listing, then you are aware of the financial realities of racing.  It took more than two decades until we were in a financial position for him to try racing again.  Unfortunately, his health had deteriorated significantly, but he decided to attempt to race again.  He went out and bought all new fire resistant clothing & equipment (excluding the outer suit, his old one still fit).  But when the time came to go to the racing school (needed before driving in some actual races), unfortunately, fate stepped in, and he was physically unable to fulfill his dream of racing again.  He passed away four years ago, and I am just starting to go through his things that need to be sold.  I will be listing additional items (socks, gloves, etc.) in the upcoming days or weeks.  If you need other items, please watch for my other listings.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my listing, and good luck with your racing!


I usually ship within one business day of receiving cleared payment, however, I have some major health problems which sometimes may cause me to take an extra day.  If you need this quickly, please let me know. Thank you for understanding.


Volkswagen Beetle

The 2012 Beetle has been unveiled ahead of its Shanghai Motor Show reveal. The new 'New Beetle' is said to draw on design cues from the original Beetle launched 73 years ago. Retaining a similar silhouette to the 2003 New Beetle, the 2012 model gains a stronger influence from the 2005 Detroit show 'Ragster' concept.

Tue, 02 Aug 2011

Lamborghini 'Super Sports Car' tease for Frankfurt 2011 (click photo for full image) Lamborghini has a long-standing promise to bring something new to every major motor show, and with Frankfurt only weeks away they are starting to tease a ‘Lamborghini Super Sports Car‘. So far all we’ve got is the image above (click it to see the whole thing) which just says “Discover a new Lamborghini super sports car at the next Frankfurt Motorshow.” So what is this new Lamborghini super sports car? Well, we doubt it will be a Lamborghini SUV Concept as we doubt even Lamborghini would consider such a vehicle a super sports car.
