These Racing Silks T-shirts were available in the UK, not sure if they were imported.

Here's a Team shirt from my racing days. Not many of these were ever around. I think these were given to us in the mid-late 80's.

I have a few more, but need to take pictures, namely the one I use as my avatar and which also appears in the ad above on the girl's chest. I know Al has the sweat-shirt version of the latter. I bought mine from a US seller and Al probably did too, which means they were most probably available across the pond as well.

So, how many of you can still fit into your shirts? I know my mid-80s shirts would be a tad small :-).

I can understand having these shirts for a collection or to have autographs signed, but I'm sorry guys...if anybody over the age of 16 is wearing one of these, it just screams "geek". :lol:

I was at my LHS Tuesday and noticed a small cardboard box at the back near the new hats. I dug through it and to my surprise were two old Speedworks t-shirts in dirty plastic bags. :mrgreen: If I could squeeze into a size medium I'd wear it every day, but I'm going to frame it for on the wall instead.

There's one more available if anyone is interested and I'd be glad to ship it your way. :wink:

Not a shirt - more like a cap.

I have to ask.

does anyone have a way to remake some of the old Losi or AE shirts? It's one of theose "couldn't afford it when I was a teenager" kind of things, that I'd love to have now. especially since I still run my junior t and jrxpro se.
