Does the job
wore this through my first full lemons season. flexible enough for hard braking zones without feeling restricted. sized up for comfort and it came out a little baggy in the shoulders. happy with the purchase.

Good mid-range Sparco kart suit
Comfortable and well made. Better range of motion than basic suits. My daughter likes the fit and it's held up well through the season.

Happy with it
wore this through my first full lemons season. good entry suit for a kid moving up from a onesie. took a wash or two before the smell of new nomex faded. recommend for anyone stepping up from rental gear.

Thunder Advanced has great range of motion
The stretch material in the Thunder Advanced makes it very comfortable in the kart. Well made and my son has worn it for a full season without issues.

Great for club racing
bought this for lemons. flexible enough for hard braking zones without feeling restricted. arms run a little long, had to roll the cuffs. good value if you're not racing pro level.
