Im not sure if something like this has been mentioned but i checked the suggestions list and couldn't see anything similar.

This is largely a feature that would help those of us who dont use cockpit view. I myself use cockpit view.

What I propose is a customisable HUD, but this can apply to all views.

Basically, items on the screen can be individually removed or placed. Items such as the split time could be removed, but you can still see your lap time and total race time. Or any combination of the three depending on your preference.

This basically stems from the fact that I would like to race with a minimalist HUD. At the moment, cockpit drivers can do this by using Shift-F, but doing this on bumper cam is a little bit too sparse! I would like to be able to have just the Gear, Revs and Laptime available, with only the gap times with positions popping up at the splits.

So basically everything and anything has an option to be switched on/off as well as positioned manually. I belive NFS4 had a similar feature

Hope this all makes sense!

It was already in NFS3

It would certainly be nice to be able to disable some things to minimize the hud...also the map can be sometimes hard to see (exiting pits and can't check if there is someone coming) and the starting lights get easily blocked by the messages...

EDIT: and before anyone else gets to say it: not a priority at the moment

yeah, its just one of those things to add to the list. plus im sure it wouldnt be too hard to implement.
