Upgrade Your Cockpit: The Ultimate Guide to the Viloci Corse Quick Release Steering Hub

When you are fighting for tenths of a second on a rally stage or a packed grid, your primary touchpoint with the car is the steering wheel. In motorsport, a steering wheel isn’t just for turning—it is a critical safety and ergonomic component.

If you have ever tried to scramble out of a tightly bolstered bucket seat past a wrap-around roll cage, you know how vital a quick-release hub is.

Enter the Viloci Corse Quick Release Steering Wheel Boss (Gold Edition). Priced at a competitive £59.99 (including taxes with Klarna split-payment options available), this premium bit of kit blends high-tier motorsport functionality with striking cockpit styling.

Below, we break down why this CNC-machined hub belongs in your competition car and how to ensure a flawless installation.

Technical Specifications: Viloci Corse Quick Release

Before buying any steering mechanism, the technical data matters. The Viloci Corse hub is engineered for demanding track and stage environments:

• Manufacturing Process: Full CNC-machined billet aluminium for maximum structural rigidity and zero play.
• Total Height: 53mm compact profile.
• Finish: Anodised sleek gold (provides superior corrosion and wear resistance compared to standard paint).
• Installation Type: Direct bolt-on mechanism (no welding required; 100% reversible).

What is included in the box?

Unlike many budget alternatives that leave you hunting through loose bolt bins, the Viloci Corse kit comes complete with all required hardware:

• 6x Countersunk bolts
• 6x Allen head bolts
• 6x Washers & 6x Locking nuts
• 2x Fitment Allen keys

The Benefits of a Bolt-On Quick Release Hub

1. Rapid Cockpit Exit & Entry

In a motorsport emergency, every second counts. A quick-release system allows the driver or co-driver to instantly pop the wheel off, creating the necessary clearance to exit a tight cockpit safely. It also makes routine driver changes during endurance events significantly faster.

2. Zero-Welding, Reversible Installation

Traditional weld-on steering slugs require professional fabrication and permanently alter your steering column. The Viloci Corse unit features a direct bolt-on installation. It mounts straight onto your vehicle’s existing aftermarket 6-bolt steering boss (such as an OMP, MOMO, or Sparco hub adapter), making it completely reversible if you ever sell the vehicle.

3. Integrated Accessory Compatibility

Want to run a lap timer, radio push-to-talk (PTT) button, or a custom switch panel? The face design of this hub seamlessly accepts standard steering wheel button brackets between the boss and your wheel, keeping your controls right at your fingertips.

Crucial Fitment Advice: Choosing the Right Steering Wheel Dish

When adding a quick-release hub to your vehicle, you must account for driver reach. Because this boss adds 53mm of height to your steering column, it brings the steering wheel 53mm closer to your chest.

⚠️ Fitment Note: To maintain an ideal, ergonomic driving position, we highly recommend pairing this quick-release hub with a flat steering wheel or a shallow dished wheel (65mm or less). If you fit this to a deeply dished 90mm wheel, the rim may sit too close to your body, compromising your control and leverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a quick-release steering wheel boss safe for rallying and racing?

Yes. When manufactured from high-quality CNC-machined aluminium like the Viloci Corse hub, a quick-release boss provides a secure, zero-play mechanical connection. It is explicitly designed to withstand the high torque and harsh vibrations encountered in competitive stage rallying and circuit racing.

Will this quick-release hub fit all motorsport steering wheels?

The Viloci Corse hub utilizes the industry-standard 6-bolt pattern (6x70mm / 6x74mm PCD). This means it is directly compatible with the vast majority of professional motorsport steering wheels, including models from MOMO, Sparco, OMP, and Motamec.

Can I install a quick-release steering wheel boss on a road car?

While it is technically possible, this system is designed primarily for motorsport and track use. Installing this on a standard road car will require removing the factory steering wheel, which deactivates the driver’s airbag and disrupts factory steering wheel controls (horn, cruise control, etc.).

How can I protect my steering wheel when it is removed?

When your wheel is popped off in the paddock or service park, the materials (especially suede or Alcantara) are vulnerable to grease, dirt, and UV damage. At Race Rally Supplies, we supply dedicated steering wheel covers alongside this hub to keep your wheel pristine between stages.
