    Anyone have these gloves what do you think? Only thing that is missing I kind of wish it had was the knox sliders on the palms. For 200$ price point does it seem like its worth it? Thanks.

    I just bought a new set of glove after reviewing many options, did allot of in depth study on race gloves. I too wanted the knox sliders in the palm, it came down to the Teknic Violator 2013 model, Cortech Adrenaline II and the Racer High Racer, my finally purchased the Racer High Racer gloves, this was a brand I never heard of, but after checking them out, I found them to be an awesome glove and well worth the price,$199.00. check them out at Racerusa.net. My 2 cents.

    I tested my Carbon 3 in a low side crash were I went hands down first and they protected me as they were supposed to. I still can wear them and probably will perform ok in the case of an accident. still gonna get a new set for the upcoming season and for sure will get the same ones!!!

    overall highly recommended worth every penny (spidi makes good stuff)

    Best glove hands down I think is Held Titan...........if you want to pay the luxury tax fee of about $350, my local shop was giving all the racers/trackday folks a discount of $200.
