Default Does your shiftknob get hot as hell too?

I got a fake ctr **** and man that thing gets hot. I have to put a winter glove over it during the hot days so I will be able to drive home after work. Do you guys suffer from a case of hot ***** too?

My momo one gets really hot...

I got a question for you guys though. When you are driving does your back get all sweaty from cloth seats?

i still got the stock shift ****. when i first start up the car and make those first few shifts it's pretty hot, but then cools down fairly quickly.

i have a worse time with my steering wheels getting hot. the damn thing stays hot for a while. once i get on the highway or a main road, i try to use my knees to steer until the wheel cools down enough.
i'm 'bout to get one of those bright pink, fuzzy steering wheels covers. i don't care if i'll look like a tool or not, that isht get's hot!

Yep, hot shiftknob syndrome, I have the Razo Black Chrome Ball type ****, who knows what it's called? Oh well, great shifts, once it's cooled down, until then i shift by holding the stick below the ****, Oh and the momo steering wheel gets hella hot too. Try driving with a burning hot shiftknob, burning hot steering wheel...and a cigarette... lol

Mine gets ridiculously hot. Imagine this, no tint + 108 degree days in AZ==Burnt hand for sure.

I have a shirt I cover my sparco steering wheel with, I just use that to shift at first until some air is circulated.

Razo silver metallic...looks dope, gets pretty darn hot and cold. Keep a sock handy (sounds funny, looks funny, works great).
