    Which do you prefer to use?

    I generally use first person, and switch to third sometimes on straights for a heightened sense of speed.

    Sounds dirty... :eek:

    I use cockpit view. It's the only way I can trick myself into feeling like I'm actually driving a car in these simulator-type driving games. Otherwise, I always end up over-turning the wheel or running into everything in sight.

    I use cockpit view, because i find 3rd person really difficult

    Both. I like the realism of the cockpit view but sometimes switch to 3rd person to admire the graphics.

    Slaving peon.
    Not here; not there; not anywhere!
    Since when do cars have cockpits? :p Dashboard view for me. It controls much better that way.

    When I use accelerometer steering I use the dashboard view.
    When I tap to steer I use the 3rd person view.

    Only first person view. I find Third person view very difficult and almost impossible for good lap times.

    Both. It depends on the track. I find third person is easier for the real twisty tracks.

    First person.

    Third person doesn't work that well for me because you don't really see your car turning, it feels like the road is turning and that throws me off.

    Y'know I knew that was wrong when I read it, but thinking of the correct word was too much effort so I just went with it.
