    Even i had planned the same but after using them(Reflex Knee-Jasir's) in the last track day, i got this has these are more comfortable and even these can be carried easily

                              I recall Angel's Racing jackets were used for the GIR I think? My budget is around 5 K 6K max for that. I wanted a decent jacket with CE approved armour. Cramster offers a few an I think so does Angel's. Planet DSG was a tad expensive for me.

                              Does anyone have an reviews on them? Personal experiences? WOuld be much appreciated.

                              iam using DSG spike jacket. the jacket is not a snug fit. the quality of the cordura is good but the inner mesh lining leaves a lot to be desired. the mesh lining tear very easily and zippers break rather quickly with everyday use. the velcro strap on wrist cameoff within 2 weeks of daily use. its very hot and u ll sweat a lot. armour are CE approved. fairly waterproof and no discolouration of the jacket on washing.costs 4.5k

                              in my opinion check the mesh jacket from cramster . it costs the same 4.5 but looks better in built quality though u need to check. comes with CE protectors and should be more comfortable to wear.besides u get a waterproof upper raincoat like jacket with the mesh jacket.and its more snug fitting then the DSG.
