My girlfriend is about to do her first trackday in the Novice catagory this coming weekend at Autobahn, and I was wondering if these gloves will be acceptable. Is that enough wrist coverage? Gauntlet-style?
On the edge of it at best. Be a bummer to find out it is below the edge. Get some better ones and she can still use them on the street also :wink:
Yeah we're just poor and the trackday is her birthday present from me, so I was hoping that she couldn't be forced to spend another ~$70 on more gloves for it. If I have to, I have to I suppose.
Sportbiketrackgear has some gloves in their closeout section for $25 that would be way better than those. Also they ship really fast. http://stores.sportbiketrackgear.com/Categories.bok?category=TEKNIC+APPAREL:Close+Outs Later Steve
2 years ago saw a guy at Road Atlanta with a pair like that, I just gave him my backup set of gauntlet type track gloves.
