Well, I had to ask, because I prefer the big fat ones, but I have a small skinny one. And, I didn't know how you boys liked yours...............

Now, for the serious business If you do a 90 second lap and each lap has ten curves, then you are averaging a 90 mph curve about every 9 seconds - I would say that is a LOT of torque on a steering wheel and the hands that need to control it.

If you have power steering, it is not going to be an issue. On the other hand..., if you don't, and you are doing a 90 minute enduro on Thunderbolt, your hands might get tired working the octupus........
