Up to the user IMO, personally I get irritated having to wear a boiler suit to do Karting so Im probably not the best person to give an opinion.

Curiously though Im more than happy to wear a Leather jacket and gloves when on a bike.

That Caparo was in its finished state is soon to be a production road car at £190,000+.

If you have a suit wear it, even a std road cossie can go up in flames so give yourself a chance if you do track days regular

Dont get me wrong either - Im not saying do as I do

Its just personal choice for me not too on a trackday

I dont put myself into a situation where the car can be hit / damaged to make it spontaneously combust without warning, and Im sensible enough to obey a marshals instruction should they see a flame before I do
