I had the same apprehension, Cory;
It never happened. Don't know if it was the will to survive or what but, I
never "grabbed for air." The only time I had concerns was in the paddock.
Other than that, my steering was quick enough to obviate the need for that
extra third of a wheel.

Subject: [F500] steering wheel - open vs closed top
After 11 years of racing, I am considering changing from a traditional
steering wheel to one with an open top. I'm a little concerned about the
transition - I don't want to be on the track, or even worse in an
emergency situation, and end up grabbing air instead of the top of the
wheel. I'm sure I would get used to it, but one mistake at the wrong time
could cost lots of $$$ or worse.
So - I'd like to ask for feedback from those of you that have raced with
a traditional wheel and switched to the open top. Was it difficult? Did
you experience anything like I described above. Has anyone tried to make
the change and couldn't get used to it or switched back for some other
reason.
Thanks as always!
Cory
