The Speedway is based on the Aero x Levi Blue/Black Goat they did in the early 2000's.
After lusting for one for ages, I finally managed to tracked one down but they run small and VERY short. I had a large and its back length was 22.5 inches (maybe 22.75). It was just too short for me.
I did...
I've got the ELMC J100 in 42.
It's a very slim fitting jacket, very true to the "Racing Shirt" concept and definitely slimmer than the same size ELMC Californian, Roadstar and Windward. I don't have any idea how it fits in comparison to the RMC version.

I've also got one of the Royale Filmwear "Harringtons" and love it.

You would think so but I literally just bought a freaking Kevlar lined Hoodie with CE 2 armor in the pockets of all things....a hoodie!!
Granted, I don't ride far these days, just to Muay Thai training 10 minutes down the road but still....essentially my 1 excuse to wear leather and I don't...
Ah ok, that must explain it!
I'm just reading some threads over on VLJ re BK leather and how it ages and their military jackets made of Liberty have MUCH less dramatic aging than yours, they still show some aging but nothing like this!
Thanks for the extra info.
Can I ask how you sized the...
Thanks for the updated pics.
I'm considering getting one but damn, that Liberty HH shows a lot of wear quickly! All that from 1 year of regular use?!
