Well there's interesting.
My textile jacket is very well armoured, close fitting and leather reinforced in all the right places, as well as having a full trouser zip.
Personally, I'd feel happy to crash in it.
I guess there are other textile suits that would be less suitable though, which is maybe the reasoning behind the leather only rule.
Certainly, I'd rather not have to buy new kit, even the second-hand stuff on my list, just for a one-off trackday. That way I could still afford to do the Isle of Man this year.
Sorry to be a nuisance, but early confirmation would be good....I'm already bidding on ebay.

Just spoke with No Limits Track Days.

NO.
Only Leathers, full one piece or two piece/full zip together.

I'm sorry but that's the end of it.

And they will make spot checks of riders wearing two piece to ensure they are zipped together.
