Looks like my Cup interior, except with more switches and more CF. Speaking of which, the "picture frame" on the sides and bottom of the pedal box are curious. Why is that feature even necessary?

Thats a serious lookin cockpit. Nice!

Hey for you track guys, what is the reason for the net in the interior? The one to the right of the driver? Was wondering that the other day.

Containment - arms are valuable things And some debris protection - but I'm never convinced the net can stop that much. ..

Sweet!! That would look awesome outside Starbucks on a Sunday morning!!

What's the deal with the track map stuck on the door? Hope the driver would not be looking at that to get themselves around the track?!?!

As mentioned, to help contain the driver in side impacts. HALO seats do a great job, the net is just another way to help keep the driver from flopping around.

You'll see them on many steering wheels, even inside the tubs of F1 cars. Basically they are a reference used in the pits (no, not on track) to discuss what the car is doing at specific points on the track and give engineering feedback. For me, it helps me think through and remember what I was feeling/doing. Places like Lime Rock they are less useful, at places like COTA or VIR it helps to remember the corner numbers (instead of saying "that fast left...)

Just watched the replay of Pirelli world challenge at Mid-Ohio (GT, GT-S, GT Cup) and MOST had the track map on the dash (or more specifically the steering wheel)---I thought that was odd for pro drivers, but I guess it is the norm?

I haven't seen a car in the pits at an IMSA race without one (not that I've looked in all of them, but the ones I did had them)

I'd be happy with simply an H-box in the middle.
