Is there a way to still veiw the drivers arms on the wheel, but not have him
actually working the shift lever? If you watch the supplied replays, none of
the drivers arms leave the steering wheel, which allows you to better veiw the
gearshift at all times. I just can't find the option. Any help is appreciated.

Hey, we like seeing the drivers arms working, he does some major
contortions when you're on full opposite lock and you change gear:-)

I would turn off wheel and drivers arms ... I have my own wheel and arms
myself - why should I need another wheel plus arms on the screen? ;-)

Anyway, I have always thought that the moving arms are the most
stupid things ever to occur in a Papy sim and I refuse to have
them in my***pit. Like with the F10 view, you have to ask the
honest but blunt question. Why?

For almost 18 months I used the arms religiously.......NOTHING would make me
turn them off. Why the change of heart? I found that I was being
distracted if the wheel was not "on centre"!! It would irritate the hell
out of me to the extent that I was spending more time concerning myself
about an out-of-kilter ***y wheel than was looking at the road ahead!
So off went the arms and, to be honest, it took some sessions before I felt
comfortable with this new, very bare-looking,***pit. My driving hasn't
improved but at least now I look at the road and not the ***y wheel :-)

It's so less distracting!

Originally I drove with the arms off for framerates, but when I got my
new PC I put them on because I thought it looked better. Changed them
back about a week ago and my laptimes came down. Not much, but a few
tenths a lap makes a difference!
