    I have always raced in cockpit view...can get dizzying when playing through a projector with 2.5m screen...but you get used to it.

    Anything over 10 laps at Phantom speed gets very disorientating though I must admit.

    I'm pretty sure cockpit view is what Asayyeah uses as well.
    Probably the reason for the Schnitzel regurgitation at the Euro Convention.

    True BW : once upon a time i used the Schnitzel view : it's weird everything looks bigger and your stomach wants to go through the pitlane

    Definitely internal addicted here from early beginning till my eyes let me use it

    I have tried sebenco with internal view to see.
    It was funny especially after barrel roll but so difficult!!
    A cockpit view with board details would be great in the next update.

    Yesterday I did about 8 races with Internal view, on Rapier, it was great and
    it felt like Phantom speed! To execute BRs successfully without hitting walls
    afterwards, I just had to trust my instinct/reflexes (aquired after long hours)
    and NOT my eyes, and then they worked just fine and looked phenomenal,
    especially the double BR on ubermall forward!

    Nailing the short cut and throwing in 2 BR in the process on Ubermall Reverse in Cockpit view 5 laps in a row in a Phantom TT = The definition of DIZZY.

    Also IMHO extremely hard ,if not the hardest thing you could do in to whole of HD.

    Also hard to do in cockpit view IMO is the Chenghou reverse shortcut... well, the shortcut is not that hard but... performing a BR while doing it... wow XD I have to be really inspired lol

    I found you don't even have to attempt to do a L R L or R L R to do a BR on that Chenghou reverse short cut .
    Just tapping on the air brakes while steering left will get you into a sort of spiral that ends up BRing.
    I think it might be because the craft is well above any track and that once it leans past a certain point [which it could never do while on a track] just BR's automatically.
    Same thing on the big jump on Chenghou forward ,if you take a slightly wrong line while in the air and adjust with the air brakes so the line is correct for the little tunnel/chicane,that leans the craft over to the right ,causing a BR without L R L.
    Sort of a \ / would be the normal lean while on a track and not quite _\ or / _ would be the lean using the air brakes whilst in flight ,if that makes any sense to you.

    What is external view haha.... I may have to learn to fly this way though as other pilots are ramming me to bits ( literally ). Also, I seem to be stuck on zone 66 so maybe external view is the way to go on zones.
