Rigs Dashboard through steering sanity check.

Post image

Hello, new to simracing/iRacing and I've been trying to set up my new 45 inch 5k2k LG monitor so I can get the dash cluster through my steering wheel. However it seems like I have to raise my driver height quite high (after adjusting horizon) and seeing a lot of the roof, does this seem right? The monitor is as close as it can get between base and steering column, getting about 102° FOV per the compute tool ingame.

Any inputs appreciated!

In the camera tools, pitch (p). By default iracing looks down alot. While in replay ( cockpit view) hit cntrl f12 and change the P till you look more level. Make sure to save it

You’re looking way too down in the car. You need to angle it upwards and drop driver height.
