It's not possible.

Papyrus wanted to recreate what you would see in the driver's eye if you
were in the real-life car.  And they didn't had digital displays ;)

Just got GPL and after checking the manual, have not found a way to display the racing data ( speed, etc.) except in the
arcade view . How is done for the in car view?

Thanks

JIm,

It is a sim.  They didn't and you don't ;)  You go by the tach.  The
other gauges are explained at Jeffrey Hunsbarger's web site:

When I want to know the speeds I'm turning, I look at the replays.
Speed is displayed there.

Hope this helps.

Ahm....With your gauges.............(There is a guage explanation website
somewhere out on the web - I think you can connect via Alison Hines' excellent
website).

Thanks guys for the info.

No wonder this sim is going to be hard to master.
