I heard an interesting argument years ago to the effect that you do NOT wan=
t patches sewn on using Nomex thread. Because the patch itself is NOT flam=
e resistant, the theory goes, why would you want it firmly attached to you =
while it burns? Better to use regular cotton thread which will burn away a=
nd allow the burning patch to drop off.
Anyway, that's the theory.
Best not to be on fire at all, of course.

Subject: [Fot] Driver Suit Embroidery
A shout out to a great resource for racers.
I was looking for a shop to sew on some patches and have my name put on my =
new drivers suit with embroidery. A racer friend suggest Corki's Embroider=
y in Newport Beach, CA (they have a website). All work was done in about t=
wo weeks with Nomex thread (very important) and the price was great. My un=
derstanding is that this is the go-to shop for racers in Southern Californi=
a. Very nice people and excellent workmanship. If you need this service a=
nd can't find a local shop keep these folks in mind.
Cheers, Ken
