    Armor and protection?

    What kind of armor do you guys where for track riding?
    Myself I have a CE armored leather suit, plus knee armor.
    Tracktime recommends a level 2 back protector so, I'm considering adding the Alpinestars Bionic SP vest. It has their Bionic back protector combined with chest armor and hip padding.

      for track days, been wearing 2 piece zipped together leathers with armor and a alpinstar back protector.

      you need to balance protection with flexibly.
