i'm one of the only guys on my team that foen't wear a drag suit. do drag suits make that big a difference?
if so is there a drag suit that has VERY LITTLE DRAG that i can wear to get use to at first? (eventually i'd buy one with more drag)

To me there is a fine line between enough and too much drag. Its an individual sport and not everyone can train the same.
That being said, I just wear a speedo endurance brief with one of the Speedo perforated square drag suits on top. I can agree with the logic of wearing a race suit/single suit, etc for maybe test sets, but for training its always two suits for me.
Some of the resistance training I've done in the past (late 80's, early 90's) include:
Panty hose (Drag)
Tights (Drag)
Umbro Soccer Shorts (Drag suit)
Pocket Suits (Drag Suit)
Little innertubes on ankles (Pulling sets)
Straps on ankles (Pulling sets)
T-shirts (swimming/kicking)
Running shoes (kicking sets)
Weights/Bricks (vertical kicking)
Stretch cords (swimming in place & 25's)
Milk Buckets with weight on pulleys you pull to the ceiling while swimming
