  • + I still yearn for a day when they bring back the rubber, full body suits. I'll fork out money for 5 seconds on my 500! Today's jammers might buy me 5 tenths on a 500 ... at best. I hated the shiny suits when they were legal because they took forever to get on,if you didn't have the right one you were at a disadvantage(Joe has a Jaked and I'm stuck with this clunky old LZR) and they were fragile(after 45 min of struggle I have on,now I'll bend over for the start,:censor: $500 gone and I'm traumatizing the timers.) Now that they are gone I miss feeling younger(wow,I haven't done that time in 10 years) and being able to go to a non-taper meet with my slightly stretched out suit and go faster than if I'd shaved.Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've lost til it's gone.
