I wore driving gloves and then the film 'Drive' came out and people thought I was copying the guy from the film. It gives you more grip on the wheel and its more hygenic. Also I looked cool in them, but now I cant wear them cus people go 'haha you think youre the guy from Drive!'

I wear them for go-karting and winter driving with no heating in the 6... I wear these  You don't look like too much of a twat (I hope) 'cos they're not proper driving gloves and they're *borrowed* from work, so it isn't like you made an effort to get them  ________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

I wear them in winter! Lol I do look gay but I have warm hands. Driving in winter without them has become unpleasant. ________________________________________ Black 306 GTi-6 175.8BHP SCA Norwich ProjectTopaz Blue 205 CTI  |

A lot of the Lotus owners seem to wear gloves when on track. I think it's a grip thing or maybe to stop the sweat The only thing I can think of is we don't have power steering like you namby pamby Pug owners and have we much better feel through the steering wheel Oh I'd just like to add that I don't own a pair of driving glove  ________________________________________ My old man wrote me a letter from prison once.

I have no power steering, but my wheel is old and slippery and I think gloves would actually make it worse as I don't feel the same feedback. My hands only get sweaty when I'm horny. ________________________________________ |
