be careful when buying the puma's. if you are really intending to use them on the track, be sure that they are nomex shoes. most of puma's shoes are not nomex. they have one line for mens that is nomex.

for another store that doesn't happen to be in south bay, but has a great selection of shoes and other gear, you may want to check out wine country motorsports in sonoma (at sears point)
they have stand 21 and sparco and some other brands.
happy hunting!

Nordstrom Rack sells Piloti shoes. i know cuz i ordered from a store in Cali and had them ship to the Nordstrom rack here in Hawaii. expensive shoe though. but i like it.

Like GDogg said but it doesn't have to be from the Rack because their big stores carry them and if they don't they'll order them for you. Plus Nordstrom is nice because they carry big sizes for people who have bigger than a size 12. I wear 15-16 and i can always find shoes that fit there.

I have a set of Nike Air Presto Faze that I got for Xmas last year that I only wear when I got to the drag races. They are very thin and allow me to slip the clutch a lot better at the line. But I would never wear them out in public.

if your feet are THAT BIG you should be driving an automatic!! or at least an american car!! LOL. . i'm kidding of course
i just had a discusion about that. if u plan on doing a lot of heel toe action i recommend the sparcos. they are extremely narrow - which is good for keepin everything close. i think they designed these shoes for indy applications. . . funny thing is i wonder who has feet that narrow!
