Scuffed leathers on a trackday?...
 

I'm thinking about getting back on track for the first time in a while.

I lowsided at Donington nearly 4 years ago (will be 4 years on April 19th), and for various reasons (cash, baby, time) haven't had the chance to get back on the track since.

So, am now in a better position to get on the track again - but am just wondering about the state of my leathers.

It was a decent Dianese 1 piece "K" suit that I lowsided in, and it hasn't burst any seams but is rather scuffed in places.

How do track-day organisers take to scuffed leathers?
Would they deem them as unsafe?

Anyone got any experience of this?

I very much doubt you'll have any porblems. My old Dainese set were somewhat scuffed and never heard a peep from anyone.

As long as there are no holes and the seems are intact you'll be fine.

you should see the state of mine!!!

i look like road kill :frog:

but most trackdays dont even check your leathers and as long as they are in one piece and have no holes you should be fine anyway.

I would check more whether you feel confident wearing them in case you come off.

As already said, you shouldn't have any problems. Trackday organisers don't normally check your bike or kit as doing would imply additional liability on them. I believe the conditions you sign state that the bike and kit has to be "roadworthy".
