CIVICXI *NOVICE* Track Thread!

Nice safety upgrades. The hans isn't cheap but neither is a neck injury..

Yeah I thought it was only for people with cages and 6 point harnesses. It wasn't until talking to @PointByPatrol that I started to look into it. I saw a guy a the track with it the last time I went and he was telling me that its actually better for a beginner to have it vs a pro because as a beginner you are more likely to crash. He also said that after watching what happens to the neck in a crash you will want one lol.

I'm not someone who likes to blow my money on high quality gear unless I have the skill to take advantage of it, thats one reason why I don't plan to go crazy with mods and only interested in the mods for better track reliability ie cooling mods. So I never really considered it.

The gloves though I kinda splurged I have really long and skinny fingers so I knew that ordering gloves was never going to work, I would have to go to a store and try them on. Thankfully there was a vendor there that had everything I needed. I tried every glove in the store and got the ones that fit my long ass fingers the best.

I don't like the logic beginners more likely to crash vs pro. Accidents happen at all levels. That's why it's important

I got a pair of gloves this year and paired with the alcantata wheel it's amazing no regrets lol.

Woah. Love those gloves. Let us know how they go.

You are getting me to share my helmet and some goodies I just got today

Really exicited to try this stuff out. I went to Sebring today and was able to visit a race shop and try on helmets and gloves for sizing. My new helmet is way more comfortable than the one I currently have been using.
