"I Suddenly Realized I Hadn't Been Getting Hot!"

Andy Wallace and 2BKOOL President Grant EllwoodRenowned British racecar driver Andy Wallace (shown at left with 2BKOOL President Grant Ellwood) had almost completed the day's high speed testing for his Daytona Prototype team at Virginia International Raceway when the realization hit that he hadn't been getting hot while wearing 2BKOOL apparel. 

Wallace has won all the major international endurance races - Le Mans 24 hour (twice), Rolex Daytona 24 hour and Sebring 12 hour events - and was testing the latest advancement in driver safety - 2BKOOL apparel which combines fire resistant fabrics with a temperature control process called phase-change.

Andy Wallace was so enthusiastic about the cooling properties of the 2BKOOL test apparel that he insisted on keeping and wearing it for the rest of the 2006 race series. Andy is now wearing the current 2BKOOL product, and staying cool in the driver's seat, for the 2008 racing season.
