Bad Idea....steering wheel has the Airbag...removing this safety equipment is illegal and unsafe anyways

I realize the safety and legal aspects of it. This is purely for future planning. I dont want an airbag deploying on me on the track, where the car will spend most of its life after the beginning of the year. The srs system will cause more damage to the car than help me due to the cage, seat, harness, etc. I know sparco makes a hub kit but i dont know if other brand wheels will work with it. Any takers?

I took out my airbag steering wheel in the Miata in favor of a Sparco racing one. I had to have the hub adapter, but I opted to not get the quick-release! Now the airbag light flashes, but I just ignore it.
