Default D-Wheel

Received my D-Wheel with the Competition Logo yesterday. Will take more pics later, but my wife snapped a quick one.

Still not sure I like an out of round steering wheel. I have to actually drive a car with one. Rapid turning could be somewhat impeded during an auto cross event.

If you trade up to a 2016 you better keep your old steering wheel.
