Anyone have any idea if there look genuine?
Cant find a matching pic on the net anywhere that says 'yeh'.....seller says 'yeh' but I have an instinctive distrust of thing EBAY. I wont post the item number for fear of retribution on EBay linking, but a search on "Ford Performance Raceteam" will produce the goods.

No, they aren't genuine. I have one, I bought it from a market for $40 about 2 years ago. $40 well spent, genuine ones are usually at least $140. I knew from the start that it wasn't genuine, and I've had to have a couple sections restitched, but overall, I like it. They are really warm and are waterproof. The interesting thing about the jackets is the sponsors on there. They are missing one very major sponsor... Caterpillar!
The same stand at the market also sold FPR jumpers, with SBR logos on the zippers! Unless FPR and SBR have formed an alliance, I find that pretty weird

DIRTY...considering the seller is claiming them as genuine.

I am quite sure that the blue fronted one is the real deal. I have one at home (I will check it)
That year (2003) you could have brought the Caterpiller jacket (Lowndes) or the GT Jacket (Seato) The Black fronted one, I think is a fake. |
