Driver Switches Steering Wheel With Wii Wheel, Manages Not To Crash
The user on TikTok known as Ttptng recently replaced the steering wheel of their Mazda Miata with a Wii Wheel before taking the vehicle out for a spin. According to the user, the result was a “horrendous experience,” but Ttptng still managed to remain relatively safe while on the road.

The results truly speak for themselves.

Ttptng has been regularly posting about the project on TikTok, much to the delight of gamers and gearheads alike. Where the user plans to go from
