Racing Leathers Rain Cover

Re: Racing Leathers Rain Cover (georgeb)

not sure what they are using... probably custom fitted rain covers.

when I'm racing in the rain I just coat my gear with some waterproofing spray. you can usually find this stuff at walmart in the camping/sporting goods section for about $5 a can. Make sure you use it the day before the races though. The rain just beads off and isn't absorbed by the leather... unless you didn't apply properly or missed a spot!

Thanks for the reply. I had thought about that, but I've got one problem, perforation. My suit is perforated in the front, so I guess I'd still get wet.

I just use a cheap motorcycle rain jacket. I think I paid about $30 for it. It works fine, flaps a bit. I even use it when it's cold to cover the perforations and keep the wind off.
