The TTAC Racing Shirts Are Finally Here! So We're Going To Give More Of Them Away

What a long, strange trip it’s been for the TTAC Racing shirts! To begin with, they never made it to MSR Houston for the actual race, being left in a storage area by the folks who were prepping the car. The car itself never made it on track for the race. So this commemorates a race effort that, strictly speaking, never happened. It’s like having a shirt for the 1983 Corvette.

Which makes them either worthless or highly valuable. If the latter were the case, they’d be on eBay like, right freaking now. Since it’s the former, we’re raising the stakes.


We initially announced that we would be giving five shirts away. Due to the delay, we’re going to make that ten, and we’ll announce the winners from that thread on Monday. We’ll also give away another five to readers who post in this thread.

Sizes available will be Men’s L, XL, and 2XL, as well as Women’s “S” as modeled above by recurring TTAC imaginary character and improbably-constructed child of the Sixties, Julie Hyde. She would like to complain for the record that she received no chance to do any makeup or prepare for the photos. Complaint noted and ignored, Jules. No prizes for guessing what her nickname is.

    I'd take an L size. I just wish I was as good of a mechanic as I am a fan of TTAC.

    I like the thong idea. Since I'm a 2xl kind of guy, there would be PLENTY of room to work with material-wise. Picture this: A row of overly bright sequentially flashing LEDs down the backside terminating in a flashing stop sign strategically placed at just the wrong entrance. On the front, a picture of just Jack's hair embroidered over the crotch. Then screen the Merc racecar below the hair. I'd suggest a few prototypes before committing to production. 2xl. Anyone seen my Dewers?

  • MrIcky My maintenance costs are pretty high because I enjoy doing questionable things (when it is safe to do so of course). Tires and frequent oil changes seem a small price to pay.

  • Shipwright I wonder where Speedmaster is based. Oh Looky! it's China! who would have thought.
