Try these links http://www.kemmler.com/ and http://www.koolmat.com/ to see
some modern stuff used in racing and other applications. The material is a
form of the space shuttle heat shield tiles. Not cheap but probably less
than NASA pays for their version.
Standard Disclaimer: I have no connection with either company, just happen
to be aware of their products. Caveat Emptor.

Good Luck,
