Having recently purchaced a Roadrunner SR2 I'm keen to get out there and drive it on track. But this is England, so a wet trackday could happen at any time.

So what clothing have you gone for to keep yourself walm and dry, what have you found works well for you?

How about this....

Pop down your local motorbike shop and get an all in one suit, the only problem with these is you get wet from your sweat if you get a cheap plastic one like mine, it cost around £50, just pull it over all your clothes when the weather breaks.

Also drill a hole in your seats to let the splashed water out or you will end up bathing your nuts!

In summer I just use normal water proof jacket and trousers, in winter I will use my motorbike textiles.

So bike shop but spend a little more than £50 for something which can breath a little. Oh and get the drill onto the seats

I dont want to be put off by a wet day thats all, just enjoy the different conditions. I have a pinlock visor which may come in handy..

I thought sevens would be rubbish in the rain but once I've got my helmet and water proofs on its really fun.

Ive got 1 of these great for the job


Warterproof

whos sr2 you got or was it new

I read an article in EVO magazine which claimed a sailing jacket (with high collar) works well in a kit car if you don't want to go with the whole motorbike overalls and full-face helmet thing.

How's about a surface sports drysuit I'm only half joking, I wear one kitesurfing and I can go surfing with jeans and t under it and walk straight out of the suit into the pub...

Bargain, great fitting and seems like it will keep me dry!
