@cosminjur Sure its allowed. But it isnt recommended. 1) Safety. The gloves are usually fireproof. 2) The steering wheel on these cars have a layer of suede on it, so if you touch it with your bare hands you're putting greese on it, making it more and more slippery the more you touch it. So basically whats recommended is that while driving a special stage you use your gloves, and while the cars in your garage you place a wheel muff on it :)
im in this clip spectating! love that car,the sound was unbelievable,it had an unsilenced side exit exhaust then,roller barrel throttle bodies... its still alive but homolagation ran out last year,guy woodcock owns it now! i have origional boreham workshop manual for the kitcar if anyones interested???
He is driving without gloves. Very strange. Is this allowed?
