Recommend me some cheap & good gloves
Looking to buy some cheap and good gloves for the track. Problem I noticed for myself is that my hands get sweaty. Just looking at Puma and Alpinestar, they seem to go for over $100 which is a little too pricey for me.

I know it's kinda ghetto but I use football gloves. Love the grip the sticky surface gets me. You can et a nice pair of nikes at any sports equipment store for ~$40

Soft leather gardening gloves. Pick up a pack of three sets from Home Depot for $5!

I have dry hands so I've never had to deal with this issue. If you have any intention of going W2W racing eventually I'd say spend a bit more and get some fire resistant gloves (or if you have any intention of running fire resistant gear in general). I've seen people use anything from workout gloves, golf gloves, landscaping gloves, up to fire resistant gloves.

For fire regulation make sure they are solid and not vented. Most leather landscaping gloves work, and those are the ones you can typically buy at AutoX events for $10 a pair, when three pairs cost $5.

Mechanix gloves? I used them when go karting. Relatively cheap and I also use them around the garage.
