I was under the impression that two piece suits were not allowed for racing anymore, I may be wrong tho, can someone please clarify?

Just noticed, the rules may be different from the U.K

Certainly for bikes a two piece suit is not allowed but it maybe different for karts.

The ACU handbook also specifies leather thickness and also added protection at certain strategic places in the suit.

I vote for 1 piece!

Whether from a bike or kart, sliding along asphalt can still cause the jacket in a 2 piece suit to ride up.

Two piece suits are definately allowed in the UK, provided the zip together and meet the other specs like thickness.
