@@ttpnw1776 I’ve been meaning to get an update video put together, I’ll start working on something 👍

Looking forward to it- no pressure, I'm just really into the GC and GF chassis

No reason in particular, I’ve just not had any experience with them and I’ve always thought of them as a motocross brand since a lot of people ride dirt bikes in my area. I’ll definitely check out their offerings though for my next set. I’m currently using another pair of minus 273 gloves that have held up really well.

I just added a link to the race department page in the video description, I'll add a link for the car as well Thanks for watching

@@jackdpearcethanks

Thanks for the advice, I need a lot of work with my formula car driving. I have it set to 360 degrees in Simpro manager, but I noticed what you’re saying in my driving as well. My wheel stops at the right place for 360° but it does feel a bit weird. Do you adjust the steering lock in the AC controls setting when switching degrees of rotation? I’ve left it on 900° auto adjust and I change it from the simagic manager. This is also only my second day using a gt/formula style wheel so I’m still adjusting to it.

yes always in the ac controls@@jackdpearce

@@bfree948 Thanks again, I’ll try that out later today 👍

That makes sense, but that wasn’t really one of the big issues I had. I found the warmth to be manageable for up to 3 hour sessions. My main problem is the wearing through of the fingers from paddle shifting (which I’d imagine would happen with a shifter kart as well as a sim wheel like mine) and the flaking of the rubber. The minus 273 gloves are also designed for karting and held up well for 9+ months and they’re still usable after 150-200 hours. I have no holes on them and I never noticed a single flake of rubber off of them.

@@jackdpearce ok i understand But i dont think it would happen in a shifter kart. I am a karting driver and kz2 (shifter karts) they dont have paddels they have a stick in the right side that they are using to shif down and up and on the left side the have a padel thing for the clutch. But do you think i should buy does for my racing gear?

@@simonalsenmyr2820 Gotcha, I have allost no karting experience (one time ~10 years ago) so that’s good to know. I drive with a sequential stick in the sim occasionally, but not often so I can’t comment on any wear specific to that use case with these gloves. I suppose the flaking rubber wouldn’t be a huge issue if you’re karting since you won’t have to clean up the little pieces, but I’d still be worried about the durability and grip long term especially when driving something irl, even if only a kart. Given my wear is only after 1 month of indoor use on a fairly powerful sim wheel, I’d assume they’d fair rather poorly in a real life motorsport scenario (especially if outdoor elements are a factor). Overall I wouldn’t recommend these Sparcos, but I’d definitely take a look at the Minus 273 gloves if you’re karting. They have more grip and have been more durable in my experience. As you said I’m using the Sparcos stationary, indoor, and in a clean and dry environment so I can only imagine how poorly they’d hold up under harsher conditions.

@@jackdpearce are they worth to buy for karting?

@@simonalsenmyr2820 I don’t kart so I can’t speak to that specifically, I wouldn’t recommend them. Minus 273 gloves have been better in my experience.

Thanks 😁 I’m really liking the p1000s with the haptics and hydraulic brake for rally, the haptic motors are now addressable in Simhub and there’s loads of ways you can set them up aside from the basic tc, abs, and clutch vibrations available in Simagics software. I currently have them set to vibrate for traction loss on my front wheels (clutch front left tire, throttle front right, brake for both) and this adds a very dynamic feel to the pedals while also giving a similar response to abs on the brake even when driving cars without abs (or driving a sim without abs simulation/telemetry like rbr). I also have them paired with a buttkicker for shifting (pulse vibration when changing gears and a gear grind/missed gear effect) and rear traction loss. It’s mostly immersion but you get used to the little cues from it and it can definitely help your driving, even if it’s only a little bit.
