I don't think the question of easier to steer is one of strength but is one of movement. The Spitfires light weight negates the need for strength to steer it. What we are talking about is the speed t

A larger wheel = less effort but more motion Smaller steering wheel = faster response (less motion) but more effort There is a practical limit to size though. I wouldn't want a steering wheel the siz

Since the Spitfire requires such little effort to turn the wheel, smaller is cooler! I found a 10" (questionable if it's "street" legal I suppose) LEATHER Truimph steering wheel at Carlisle a few yea

I'll join in Someone at a car show a few weeks ago told me that a larger steering wheel gives more control. I neglected to ask him if this was why F1 cars have _smaller_ steering wheels. (I've learne
