Test Drive Unlimited 1 actually allowed you to adjust the seat position inside each car. Not sure why they took that out of TDU2 but it was a great feature in the first game. Would like to see more racing games with that option.
Always use bumper cam with every one of my racing games, apart from Burnout Paradise and Tourist Trophy. I don't like having any bits of the car blocking my vision on the road, no matter how pretty they may be.
