    There is no way to see if you have your pit limiter on/off wen you enter the pit. In the [CFEG] "90 minutes off Silverstone" i made a mistake entering the pit (spin breaking before pit entry line) and me being busy to get the car going i could not remeber if i pushed the limiter or not, so i had to watch the speed myself and ofcourse totally missed my stop sign adding even more lost seconds.
    I think in real live there must be some flashing light or something!!

    Would be nice if this flag was available in telemetry for crew chief too so it could remind us to turn off (assuming its not already)

    In-car rev lights are now flashing / blinking when limiter is on, since last patch.

    Cool.
    Although I have my seat as far forward as it can go, so I lose steering wheel and dashboard which is a shame as I like seeing the wheel move.
    However if I have seat in default position I find the frame of car obscures my fov too much :(

    Just tried both cars on Laguna Seca and both worked as intended.

    Which game mode were you using when you tried and which data display are you talking about, the one in the car or the one in the hud (lower right of screen)?

    EDIT: @Eisprinzessin GTR3 Bentley works as well. But it's the rev LEDs above the data display that are supposed to be blinking, not the virtual rev bar in the display. Maybe those are covered by the steering wheel for you.

    Yea, you're right. :D The ones in the car work, the ones from the Hud don't unfortunately.
    I don't use steeringswheels most of the time so i'll have to be cautious with these cars. You think the ones from the Hud will flash as well in the future?

    Really loving the new displays by the way!

    Probably. Will look in the evening.

    Argh, the Bentley would be a really cool car with a better seat position.

    Any rumors, when the Displays will be delivered for the rest of the GT3 field?

    Slowly but surely I believe.

    Future updates to the game should be including more displays each time as far as I know.
