Crazy question, does anyone know if any drivers have wicking shirts/dri-fit/climalite/etc. shirts for sale? If so, who? I want a sprint car shirt to wear while hiking.

Don't know if any drivers do but i do know there is a shirt vendor at Eldora that has started selling event shirts in that style the last couple years. It is Homestretch Sportswear out of st Henry Ohio.  You may be able to order online

Pretty sure I've seen Paul McMahon with some of those. I'm sure he's not the only one.

Not sure about drivers, but Knoxville had track t-shirts for sale that were the lightweight wicking type.   I believe you could even get them on their website at one time, so you could even check that.

Some do, but its hit or miss.  It's a shirt style that's harder to imprint/screen print (especially with the graphics and full CMYK color printing of sprint car shirts).  So some screenprinters don't have the tech and/or experience to do so.  Also, those types of shirts are not as easily accessible to screen printers as they're are some, but not too many shirt companies that supply screen printers making those shirts.  They could buy brand (UA, Reebok, etc.) but that's at a higher cost.  It also most likely a higher cost to print and also higher priced to consumers.  The tech for printing is more costly too and when you're doing big swashes of graphics those can have a tendency to crack, peel, etc. after so many washes.  On a cotton shirt the ink/printing "lays into" the cottom better.  On dri-fit shirts it sort of adheres or "sits on top of" if that makes sense.  No expert, just giving my thoughts.  Tech is coming a long way in making it better/easier to print it's just a challenge on multiple levels right now.
