    Any opinions on 1 vs 2 piece fire suits. NOT a manufacturer question just do you like a 1 vs 2 piece and why ?

    Some guys like two, because they can take the jacket off and work on the car without changing clothes every pass. Others don't like two because they can bunch up behind you when you get in the car. GregM told me if I went two piece to sew a strap on the back of the jacket so you can reach between your legs and pull the strap when you get in, tugging the back down.

    Some guys like one piece because there is no chance of fire getting under the bottom of the jacket, they don't bunch, and they don't want to work on the car in a $1000+ suit anyway. Believe me, in a one piece you are not tempted to just leave it on and work on the car.

    I went one piece.

    Agreed on a door car a two piece can be a fair amount of headache, on a dragster ( and I would assume on a funny also) the two piece is really a pain, add the safety issues and its a no brainer.
