Did you also know that there's about a $200 spread between a single-layer and double-layer suit?

How many square inches of skin graft can you buy for $200?

Think about that for a minute.

Credit for that last question goes to Bob Mantell of Safe-Quip. Here's his point: By spending a little extra money on a quality suit, you can save a ton of money in medical bills if, God forbid, you experience a flash fire.

While nobody ever wants to talk about it, ours is a dangerous sport. Fires can and do happen. You would think that having the best in safety equipment would be a no-brainer for anybody who straps into a race car. But all too often we hear the argument that safety equipment doesn't make you go faster. While this is true, it is also pretty hard to go fast when you're lying in a hospital bed with second-degree burns.

Sure, you could drop $1,200 or more on a custom-made designer suit. But don't think for a minute that you have to take out a second mortgage to afford a quality two-layer firesuit. In fact, there are numerous options available that offer excellent protection at an affordable price.There are essentially three types of suits: single-layer, double-layer, and triple-layer. In addition, you have one, two, and even three-piece suits. Drivers need to wear one-piece suits, and crewmen can choose from any of the three multipieces depending upon their race-day duty.The price for a quality SFI 3.2A/5 two-layer firesuit starts at just under $300 and can exceed $1,000 if you go the custom route. When figuring out what to spend, remember Bill Simpson's words: "One day in the hospital is five grand, and a good suit will last you three to four years." As a side note, a suit of a really good quality will run you about $450. Divide that over four years and you've got a little over a C-note per year.
