        It's just autocross, M-rated helmets are perfectly legal.

          what about driving gloves on the street in a car that has no power steering and is around 500 ponies?

          Just want to make sure I'm clear on where I would land in that scenario haha.

            Exactly. For the track, I have:



            With a HANS device, arm restraints, and full Nomex. A full faced helmet for autoX is annoying.

                      Its the most fun car I have ever driven, unless its for more than about 2 hrs at a time, then it really sucks. Its got the same power as the M3 with 1000 less lbs to haul around.

                      Here are a couple in car videos. The first is from the race at Laguna Seca that the unpainted pics are from.


                      and some autoX action the video quality kinda sucks on this.

                        i guess this has nothing to do with your question but just reading your post was kind of like an acid flashback.
                        Dude that is too funny. My dad is a pilot for Delta, and I remembering him telling me this story of when he was a first year flight engineer on the 727, of an FO who did the same thing. My old man was a RF-4 driver just before that and he thought this was just the douchiest thing ever.

                        Guess youre not the only one. thanks for sharing. I had to call him from work when I read this and tell him. Who do you fly for BTW?

                              Doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of Alcantara?

                                The purpose of Alcantara is to separate the poor people from the ballers
