Had you or Aug said chase view, I would have laughed for an hour
I've tried Cockpit view...it's a pity they couldn't get that wheel out of the way.

Spurgy uses chase cam, and if you dont know who he is, its @Spurgy 777 , also known as TRL_SPURGYHad you or Aug said chase view, I would have laughed for an hour

Anyway I have to confess the cockpit was a joke, I know some very fast drivers that use it and I never figured how they managed, just wanted to see howe you all reacted.
@Stephen Vann can you update my cam preference to bonnet?

I thought you were having a laugh!
In my opinion, it's always best to be as low to the ground as possible so that you notice the subtle changes in road geometry. In reality though you're close to the centre of rotation, so at least you always have a good sense of what angle the car is at which enables a driver to always anticipate what the car is going to do a split second before it happens.
Bumper view has the effect of maginifying this which is even better.

Can confirm I do, I feel I can get more visual reference points for what the car is doing, which compensates for the lack of feeling through the seat. It's also better for racing as you can see people around you better.

Ahh great question and interesting to see answers:tup:. I'm bumper as I think it offers the most feeling and can see where the car is. A downside is side by side racing can be tricky to know how close you are to your competitor.
Also while we're at it , could we add what controller we all use, wheel or pad as I've wondered for a long time?
I am WHEEL. A nice g29 in prep for gt sport

I have a Thrustmaster T300rs. I miss you all

I always assumed frustrated racing drivers, karters, aliens et al mostly used bumper view, with a few deviating to the bonnet!

Look at the map to see how far behind the others are. If they are close, use rear view button to look behind. when in battle I usually look behind 2-3 times on every straight, especially right before braking to see if they are attacking so I know if I can turn in or not. It sometimes looks funny because I think they will attack on the inside so I leave room, but when I look back I see them still behind me
Oh, and I use a DFGT.
I have a T300RS 599XX alcantara with T3PA, on a GT Omega RS9 rig, but I dont use that for GT6, because when I tried it it felt much better but the times was slower. Concidering GT6 is on its last breath, I cant be bothered to learn a new weel for it.
@Stephen Vann : I looked up the wheelstand pro thing, I cant believe you can actually drive on that thing, thats the most wobbly thing I've ever seen!
The wheel must be mooving all over the place!

No, it is mega heavy, it a fantastic thing, although i have my wheel force feedback on 1 or 2 only.Look at the map to see how far behind the others are.

When i first got the wheel, the aliens of the day told me max feedback was best, but it used to throw me across the room.
But also the t500rs pedal set is quite thick metal, and quite heave as well, so the whole thing is very heavy and it never moves for me.
Also i have it setup in my office at home, and it has a tiled floor, so the grip from the rubber supports is very good.
But no its fantastic in my eyes, it is very hard to move it when i am putting it away in the corner.

Yeah on DFGT/G27 max FFB is the way to go, but the T500RS is so strong, its better to lower it a bit.
Wow, never imagined it to be that stable looking at pictures.

The view I use is called normal unsure if this is what everyone is calling bumper it says normal in the game. I also use a G29 I've owned 2 DFGT both I think where better for pedal control but both broke.
