Racing Suits in Practice?

Is anyone out there besides Ande wearing racing suits in practice? I've never done it before, but was wondering it it's worth the bother to throw an old fastskin on for time periodically or during taper?

    Hi All my motto (es??) Practice/training time: never wear a competition suit - in fact I am about to try out a drag suit never wear a cap - increases drag with my ears :) use nose clips - rehearses oxygen debt/co2 excess when pushing hardCompetition/race time: local meet - use spare suit national/international meets - use newest and fastest suit always use a cap jettison nose clipResult: cap + suit + no clip gives me the 'focus' the 'superman' feel and massive confidence that I am about to swim the race of my life!try and see what you think! .
