Went to pac mall a few times and saw a whole bunch of these racing gloves. Wondering if there's any benefit in gettin' them. I was thinking since we might have meets on the tracks and stuff, and if they really feel good on ur hands maybe I should pick up a pair.

I use them myself. I find they work great..
Especialy if you have a tendancy to get sweaty hands.

Here are three types of gloves, which do you guys think I should get:

Racing gloves

Daily driving glove

There are the two kinds, which do you guys think looks nicer? Should I just go all out racing? Since even if I buy the driving gloves i'll still use it at the track only.

Yeah, I think the racing gloves look cool but if wear it for daily driving, I think you will get laughed at. Not being mean, just my 2 cents.

lol for sure man, you guys all missed the last sentence after the pictures. They will only be used for track only, but even for track only I think the racing ones look sort of ridiculous. I think i'll have to go with the daily driving gloves, they dont look too red.

I always wear my black leather driving gloves in the winter.. anything I can do to prevent arthritis in the future. They were actually a Christmas present this past year and a great gift at that - they are made by Danier, which is a very well known and respected leather company so they should hold up for quite some time.

For street i like the ones without the fingers.

I think they'd look a lot better if they weren't so flashy .. so like if they were just black or something

I'm in agreement with Brandon. I'm sure those gloves are AWSOME.. I just don't like the colours (The phrase 'Clown Hands' came to mind).

It's all down to personal preference.. :D
