I didnt know where else to post this, so here goes. I know some of you monster bashers are in cold climates, so how do you guys keep your hands warm?

I went out today to race my trucks and didnt even think to wear gloves. Needless to say I came back in with numb hands and red fingers (ouch)[:'(]

So now I ask you guys, do you wear fingerless gloves or what? I tryed to wear decently thin wool gloves, but couldnt fit my finger in the trigger anymore!

Wear gloves... I did just that 2 days ago... the wind was numbing cold. I was actually taking turns driving my buds savage so when he would drive, i'd give him the gloves and warm my hands in my pockets....... Man I want spring so bad. I have my LST, my KX 250 dirt bike and my TTrx- 7 waiting for the snow to go away.

me and my friends just sit in my car with the engine running and the heater on, if you poke your antenna out the window you can get a pretty good range

not a bad idea...especially since i can't find any gloves that fit in my controller trigger.

I keep my hands warm by not drivenign my cars in the winter at all The cold weakens the plastic parts, i dont wanna take any chances. My cars have been dormant since mid november, they will have there debute late early april.

I'm guessing you have another hobby involving indoors or warm weather? LOL I cant even think of putting down this hobby for 5 months [X(]

i remember seeing something on the bay that fits your transmitter and hands in with plenty room for movement and has that sort of soft fur lining about 20dollars i think it was that would be right up your street

i broke in my engine in my MGT when it was 50 degrees, now its 30 degrees or less so after this gallon im gonna shelf it and upgrade all the weak things.

well who ever told you that didnt know what they were talking about, if you know how to tune your engine then its not a problem, the key thing is to make sure the engine is running at 200 degrees minimum during break in, to achieve this without leaning the needles simply wrap alluminium foil around the cooling head until the engine reaches the desired temp, its as easy as that,

My Feedback: (10)

if your looking for some "flexible gloves" then look at craftsman gloves

heres some links:

i think you may be about to use the transmiter with those, they said there pretty flexible, and when people are wrenching on there cars they use them, i mean you have to be able to use small tools sometimes.

well, my solution:

Go to a warmer climate.... thats what i am doing this weekend and part of next week
San Diego, southern CA, fun stuff. Lots of hobbyshops and tracks...
Anyways, my other winter fun is skiing, that occupies most of my spare time.
