As an amateur race car driver I am always looking for safety enhancements. When
I found CarbonX I was shocked when I did personal testing on the fabric. Yes, I
tried to light it on fire with a constant direct flame. Tried is the operative
word. CarbonX is amazing. It was a lot of fun to show my wife and other drivers
the difference between CarbonX and a 100% Cotton T Shirt. All of my fabric
equipment is being changed out to Carbon X as well as my teammates. I am
thrilled that Oakley is making a suit now! With all of the factors that can
happen in a racing environment, CarbonX diminishes a big concern. Sounds like an
advertisement? No, I am just a very satisfied customer that is hoping to never
put the product to use in a real environment and proud it is made in Utah.
