Bonnet view always...  If I had triple screens I'd probably go in car view though.

So, if I do reverse text on the hood/front bumper, you'll be able to read it?

Yup, but I also play with my monitor sideways it helps my cornering, when iam really struggling I turn it completely upside-down :)

Chase cam for me. Tried the bonnet view but just can't 'feel' the car pushing round corners...I just prefer the 3rd person type of view (can't even play FPS games! Gears of War is fine but COD etc no way)

Bonnet cam since I started using a wheel in 2007. Even in rFactor or Race07 I use the bonnet cam. If I had triple screens, I'd probably use cockpit view.

Lately cockpit when in career mode but mostly hood cam when racing with you guys. It helps me avoid hitting you guys....usually...sometimes..

For some odd reason I use 3rd person (chase close) view, always have.  Tried other views but I can't see the track or the people racing around me enough.  I do use bumper cam for Positano and Fuji though, helps with transitions better.  To each his own, but I guess the main reason I have always used Chase was so that I could see everyone around me and race close without getting into others.

If it is tourni or kiwi...i just hit them out of spite! cool

Cockpit. Used to use bumper in fm2 and 3. Cockpit view was seriously useless in 3. In 4 it's fine and I like the feel of it.

Cockpit view in Season Play.  More fun/challange.  Hood view in Multi/online play as a courtesy to other drivers.  Better field of vision.  Only takes a few minutes to acclimate yourself.
