I can chime in on the A* GP Techs. Having owned two pair now will tell you that I think they are among the best gloves on the market. One of the things you'll see on many other gloves is that the stitching is usually on the inside of the glove. Meaning the gloves are stitched right side in and then turned out to complete the finishing of the glove. It can be quite annoying to have the sewn edges of the gloves rubbing on your fingers, outside of your hands, etc. The GP Techs are stitched on the outside of the glove making them very comfortable to wear for long periods of time, this was a big plus for me when wearing them on the street. On the track this might not be as much of a big deal but the comfort will be the same. The gloves do require a tiny bit of break-in like most but it is minimal in my opinion. Durability is pretty good also, my first pair lasted me several years easily. I cannot comment on how well they hold up during an off, but I fully expect them to do their job. Another interesting feature is that the pinky and ring finger on the gloves are stitched together as well. This is to prevent injury to your little finger if you fall off the right way (or is it the wrong way). I have seen many other glove makers follow suit and started doing the same thing with their glove. The glove has a wrist strap and a large hard plastic cuff. The coverage they provide is very good IMO. There is armor in all the right places to protect the hand and wrist upon impact. Price wise these gloves are on the higher end also, but if you do shop around you can find them on sale or at a reasonable price. I usually pay around $150-170 for them and retail is over $290 I think. Hand and boot gear are just as important as your head gear IMO. With all that said, feel free to ask any questions.

I didn't wanna be a dick and start noobin' your crew Howie.

I thought you were taking a bath based on your post.

Just got off the phone with TJ, my Q2's should be here sometime on Thursday. My new chain and sprockets should be at the shop already so I need to pick those up as well. Figured I'd try a -1/+1 combo seeing that most tracks are on the short side distance wise.

Welcome back Brian. It's never easy to say your wrong, it's even harder to finally realize it. QFT...especially for the guy who posted it.

Ask Udel....aka Inyazz...aka Shingina. He has a whole new appreciation for shin protection.

I'm good with that.

It's hard to say, it was still showing him online and I didn't know if anyone was starting up a new party. So I just went to bed.

True dat! I waited hours to get into the group and after one game sublime booted me because I was on a 5.00+ K/D run.

Yeah....he can miss his appointment with Dr. Walther to get his balloon knot examined.

Pricks....I'm out until Thurs. at the latest.

Monday of next week? I'm stuck in Indy again this week until Thursday at the latest.

this should be doable. Maybe two separate ground wars or the like depending on the number of players. I think we can have it so you can pick the side you will be on unless I'm thinking of BF2. So if anything else we could play BF if that's the case.

Set it up for Sat or Sun so Parks can play too. I don't want him crying that he couldn't play and that no one could carry him except for me.

I like my Pures. I got a reply back from David at SBTS. Not as cheap as the Q2's. I wish I knew how they stack up against the Pures. I might just have to put them on and see.

Fack! What the duce! I was so concerned with locating my track bike I wasn't looking for deals on tires. NOW THAT I HAVE MY TRACK BIKE....I need some new rubber. Damn it. I sent an email off to a guy Nick provided info on. We'll see if they can still work out anything on the Pure. If not I'll have to get the inferior Q2's.

Okay, where can I get Pures for the same price as Q2's???

There's already a shit ton of Godzilla movies out.

Good Gawd! Anyone wanna by a used copy of Call of Duty - Black Ops!?!? Anyone!?!?

That has to be two different people if this is her before...

Have you been peekin' in my tent at night at the track again?!?! I told you, I don't go that way and if you want stuff like that to go over to the rainbow tent and find Craig.

Welcome! You're right in my in-laws backyard....I kind of pitty you for that. LOL!

I had a 50/50 shot. I might have been Jinu's sister.

It swings just fine. Your sister can confirm.

Speak for yourself you man-ass-rump-ranger.
