Knobs (no.....not landy drivers)
by brachunky on Fri Feb 15, 2008 9:28 pm
Who, if any of us foggers, use a steering wheel knob? Im not sure if it would be of benefit or not whilst laning or p&ping I would think that you may have better control over the wheel when bouncing around on rough terrain.

I have a knob (steering that is) but have never used it off-road although I've been told there the best thing to have in muddy conditions, as its easier to move the wheel from lock to lock
