My son is totally obsessed with Speed Racer right now. He really wants to bee speed for halloween, but the costume has been difficult to find. Here is a photo of one of Speed's race suites. The one my son likes is just like this but with blue stipes. After much frustration I decided I would need to make the outfit. I am not much of a sewer, but I have managed to make a "race suit" that my some just loves.
Sorry this picture is pretty bad, but I think you get the idea.
I found this helmet on clearance at a Walmart that is closing. I found the manager and asked if he could mark it down any more...he said sure- I was shocked. I got the helmet for $12!
