    Looks like I won't be able to make the trip down though. So if any of T1A does make it and finds a good deal on a suit that's sized for a skinny bastard, txt me or something. (5'11", 135lbs... I actually have a full Vanson custom suit worksheet done up come to think of it, hrmmm...)

    Scott (SMF) and I are going Thursday. I am wearing a 42 right off the shelf. I'm looking for another 42. They fit me like a glove. 5'10" 175#'s (could loose a few) 34" waist 32" leg. and still able to wear the ICON back protector under it even though the Vanson has a hard back. I may get measured for verification.

    Yea your sounds like a custom...

    Our parking lot would be good for Mini Super Motard racing is about all. The surface is in pretty bad shape and the owner of the lot is not going to be doing it anytime soon..

    As for custom - no doubt. The deal starts on thursday night and runs til eight pm on Thursday and Friday

    Sounds good. I have two zippers. One on the wrist and one on the ankle to get done. Also need patch on my right shoulder. I can certainly leave them but I figure it would be a good time to come down with them.

    Hey Beet.

    I did check the inventory and there are only one each between sizes 36-50 EXCEPT for 46 in stock. I'm sure there s some kind of discount available just not sure what it is yet. Call me about sizing and I will pull one and have it held for you if you would like

    Will do the same for anyone else as well. Just drop me a line. - Kev 508-678-2000 x146

    I see it says 4-8pm on Thursday. I work at 3:30pm. Does it matter if I come down Thursday morning and drop my stuff off?

    I spoke to Connie and she gave the green light but asked that I stress that not everything is free... I know I already said this and you quoted it but for the sake of everyone else here it is again:

    Free Repairs
    * Vanson patches or other patches added [Max of 2]
    * Hemming of Pants or Chaps

    Seriously. Thanks for taking my stuff in early. Ill be down to pick it up some time next week after Connie calls me Maybe I can talk someone over here into allowing me to get a brandy new suit.

    I can't think Kevin and the whole Vanson organization enough.
    T1A is going to be sporting all Vanson next year. Josh get that form in there.
    While I was waiting they had freshened up some of my stitches that the pavement loosened up. Kevin measured up the ULSB AM National Champ for a suit. Kevin is also going to work up some kick but graphics including Henry.
    Rick Blake got measured up for a custom suit. Ricks ex- found a 40 right of the rack that fit her almost perfectly. Vanson is going to perform some repair (Tailored) to address her smaller shoulders. + A sale of a special I piece suit.
    If you don't know of Vanson or have never been to the shop this is the time to check them out. They have a much larger inventory of jackets and pants for you to look thru. While they have pre-worn attire, they will not last long. We are talking about used 1 piece suits for $350. There may be 1 or 2 left. I saw a couple fly right off the racks. For the Quality and the Price you can not come up with an excuse not to make it out to Vanson.

    Go see Kevin at Vanson today.

    Been there.

    PM Kevin the measurements.

    QG may just drop right into a 42. If he is taller than 5'10 or so he may need some lengthening. Right Scott? A must to try on.

    Thank you Vanson!

    T1A however may not be as thankful when they find out I can no longer wear my jeans under my leathers and will once again be sporting my sliding shorts as 'outerwear' when not in my leathers...
