Last May's trackday was my first and I rode in 2 piece leathers that zipped together (no knee pucks)  it was fine. 

After I realized that I would do more trackdays, I decided to up the protection a bit and get a suit.   [thumbsup]

MotoLiberty always has good prices. Highly recommend!!!

That aside, I think 2-piecers are OK. It's better if they zip together, but you can always call AMS for specifics.
There's going to be a lot of "first-timers"... Don't hang back [thumbsup]

Thanks.  I will go by today and/or tomorrow to check prices.  Depending on the cash spent may decide whether I go or not.  Have a trip to Portland this weekend to ride with friends there so.......mucho dinero might be harmful.

Dang! I'm going but can't do the track thingy cuz of no suit and tires and prep and cash and trailer and no track bike and.... but other than that I'm definately going to be spectating and routing our Easties-Westies on around the track. I really want to bring out a 4-track recorder to record the sound of those 10 RR's  [thumbsup]

Is anyone else going just to watch? If so PM me or reply. I do plan on riding.

Moto Liberty is closed today, best chance would be tomorrow.

Heck I'd love being a corner worker! Where do I sign up at?

bryant8

Call AMS up and tell them you'd like to cornerwork.
