I have Alpinestars karting gloves in white. http://www.alpinestars.com/Tech_1KR_Glove/pd/c/230/np/230/p/355209.html

The Tech 1 KR are long but they also have a short version.

I don't just use them for racing sims.

I do this 2 times a week. Sometimes more if my friends have some coupons they don't use. They sell coupon booklets for 100 US that give you a race for every week of the year. I have two booklets this year.

I am ranked number 96 out of 140,000+ :D

Head tracking is alright, but where is my walking around and looking at cars a la Forza?
Didn't you see the Esquire article? PS3 is too weak a machine for GT5.
Kinect required™.

where is the guy posting the vids now? asleep? weak!

It is 7:01am in Czech Republic right now. He should be up and doing our bidding!

*hint, Justin.tv + PSeye = I would watch that for an unhealthy length of time.

So 40 bucks is reasonably priced?

They seem to be good quality. I have used them all year so at least 100+ kart races and for many many hours playing racing sims and they are holding up very well.

The short sleeve version are $30. I would say that is very reasonably priced for Alpinestars gear.

Cheapest Sparco karting gloves are $50 for a comparison. You would be surprised how much wearing gloves helps with sim racing. The control you gain outweighs the laughs you might get from those not in the know. Just don't buy an Arai helmet for sim racing, you don't really need that! :lol
 
This thread has to be the most entertaining thread I've ever read. I've been keeping up with it all week. :lol

Sony really needs to tell us the damn date, though. I need to know if I'll be able to use my k-mart coupons that expire December 4th on this!

And I hope K-mart get in the CE (lol).

HES FROM THE FUTURE! HOW AWESOME IS GT5? PLEASE SAY YES

:lol

I get the point when it's under the correct blog post. Smh at people trolling other threads. Developers worked hard and stuff. And since we too were trolled, pretty bad, don't think it's fair to rain on other people's parade.

Mush's PSN account to be nuked from orbit. Thanks for fighting the good fight soldier!

Why would they nuke an eager fan who wants a release date so that he can buy their product?
He is exactly the kind of fan every company wants.

How else do you suggest us poor peasants get the attention of the Sony Royal Family? By causing a commotion of course! If it worked in medieval Europe, it works today.

You guys just made me go create an alt PSN account just in case. :(

I was only meant to be a messenger, not a martyr.

This thread is fucking epic.

I go to bed yesterday, after talking about Motorland with Mush... and today, when I woke up I've found more than 10 pages of pure awesomeness :lol :lol

This is not solely an informative thread but it is also a deep look into the psyche of a GT fan and one of the most entertaining threads I have ever read.

edit: just watched the intro again and it grows on you. The 2nd part will be fine with a sound system and beautiful HD. I would have loved some DnB though.

I made sure it was an older post for a reason! :lol


Actually, I think someone on here linked it and I just threw caution into the wind and went for it. Stupidly, I might add.

I just woke up and saw an entire list of new videos. Not going to watch any of them though. I've been devouring gt5 media lately, so I might aswell save some surprises to when I actually boot the game up myself(lol)
