Jonathan Brown says that he is looking forward to the new V8series. After struggling to adapt to the Holden after a late entry last year he is hoping to be challenging for the overall honours after switching to Ford.
"Last year was reallt tough and I only managed to battle in the mid-field for the races I competed in. However I had some moments of pace, such as Surfers Paradise qualifying."
Jon will be hoping to build on his winter form that has seen him challenge reigning V8 champ Peter Vuko on the ClioCup and BTCC. " I've managed to give P.Vuko a good run for his money in front-wheel drive cars, so now I will try to do the same in a R/Wd"Tazio 14/3/2015: I'll give every member on this forum 1,000.00 USD if McLaren fails to podium this season!

I'm curious to know what view you use when racing ? I use the in cockpit view, looking through the windshield over the dashboard. This view to me seems the most realistic. Does anyone use a different view ? I don't like the view where you can see the back of the car, not very realistic IMO (looks like you are driving the car whilst sitting in a box trailer mounted behind it. What view do you use ?

I use the cockpit view too, because I think it's most realistic and most fun.
but I think most people here use the trailer box view, because you can see how the car is handling better and that may help you pick up some time.
as a purist, I think all views other than the cockpit view should be outlawed as silly and unrealistic"Approach racing like billiards - bash the ball too hard, get nowhere." Juan Manuel Fangio

I use the roof camera, but I can the camera back and forth from the cockpit to the roof, I don't use the full car view, though.

tannat, my friend, then you will never know the joys of having to finish a race while looking through a severly cracked windshield.
or know the funny feeling of driving the car from the wrong side when you're down under.
but you go ahead chasing your lap times, and your podiums and your victories.
hey, why not just put the car on autopilot? and let the AI do everything for you?

I think I use the chase cam just because that's what i'm used to most.Tazio 14/3/2015: I'll give every member on this forum 1,000.00 USD if McLaren fails to podium this season!

i use bonnet cam for touring cars, and cockpit view for single seaters.
I can tell what the back end of the car is doing without looking at it..its called feel
i hate the outside view of the car..its not natural.
Sometimes i use the cockpit view for touring cars when i go onto a single ch'ship for some fun..makes it more realistic.
How do I print my voicemail?

I use the cockpit for single seater open wheels, but do you notice the front wing disappears when in the view it annoys me to know that
