Radraif . the dash pick will work out beautifully, I am only apx. 7miles from Rons. You can follow Darrell & I over to work on the 88GT  !!!                             

You guys will probably beat me to 88gt.... Maybe a quick run back over to your house at some point during the day?

So all this time and I had never gotten a real 84 Factory manual.  Heck I did not even have the owners manual.  Then I found this gem on ebay.  Just under $20...

I will have to call the place I found and see what shipping is on Patty's depending on the $ I may have to get mine from there to make hers worth while.

I know if you go the the club home page and scroll to the bottom of the page, there are some links to pictures at events...

I think Patty needs to be our Public Relations specialist.
Facebook (she runs 2 outside of her own already)  (when motivated I can take a gazzillion photos)...
Atlanta parade (let her at 'em... If she can't make them budge, no one can)

I know I don't want to be on the recieving end when she sets her mind to something!   She is very professional.  She worked for a VERY demanding lawyer for years and could handle him when no one else could.

Ok 100% cotton... the ones i found are not that.  They are a blend.

On the cotton shrinkage, if I go off the vortex chest sizes...

Ladies xs is 32-34 chest
Small is 35-38
She usually buys women's small in shirts, sometimes xs.

The men's xs is 44 chest, which is equal to women's xl.  And Kevin's start at small so 47 chest so 2xl.

Can't see the cotton shrinking 10 inches to give her a proper fit... no way a xxl to a small. I guess if the vortex looks the same maybe it can be an option for the smaller folks?  Unless Kevin's source has women's or kids?

I can't remember how the back was on Kevins... was it the same?

Sucess!
Found a version called "vortex" ... I'm not sure what the fabric blend was on Kevin's version to compare.
I think these are the way to go.... or I can instead get a ladies one for Patty.  I just need the embroidery cost!

Looks like the same shirt as Kevin's and they have the matching Ladies! 

And Tim... hats too!

This one is $5.20... red & black or black & red


This one $8.60 (including embroidery of logo)


I'm feeling the jacket!

In looking for a matching version in a smaller size, I happened upon this site that sells a shirt that looks like ours and I got worried when I saw a note under the size chart.
 
http://www.stellarapparel.com/store/cyclone-racing-pit-crew-shirt,Product.asp

Anyone know if the shirt Kevin is using is the cyclone seen here?  Some bad inconsistancies are noted by this vendor about the cyclone shirt manufacturer... under size chart... would not want us to start with a style we can't readily get when needed for members.  Cause its not just now, but for the future members as welll....  I know we want everything uniform!

They recommend this version, which also has a match women's version, and that got me thinking.... ok they do make a women's version.
http://www.stellarapparel.com/store/908-racing-pit-crew-shirts-downshifter,Product.asp

Surely Kevin can find a version that matches in a women's or kids version?  Did anyone ask him that specifically?

Just thought this was important to mention.  Surely she won't be the only member who will need a smaller size.  Again thinking about the future here.  We want everyone to match.  Women and men.... and I don't think folks should be forced into potato sack fitments to stay uniform or go without.

Just my 2 cents.... did not expect zero versions for the smaller in the crew.

Please someone check with Kevin to see about kids or a woman's version. And verify these are not the cyclone shirt that we might have issues getting.... or if I can get Kevins number, I will ask....  I'm sure he has contacts I can't find online....I will continue to look for a women's or kids version that matches ours though. 

If he can't find something for Patty, but I do, what will it cost for embroidery?

Thank you!
Shannon
