Will make it very easy to benchmark speeds at certain locations without interrupting normal vision. Not bad to be sure of gear either if you select dct.
looking down is natural tendency. the hud won't change that unfortunately because you look down out of fear. there is a very easy solution in the RS. take your bottom cushion out. pull the foam out. replace with some tightly packed down from a pillow for some comfort. now you sit 2 inches lower and guess what you have to look up...no choice.

another trick we do in a clinic is tape up the bottom quarter of the windshield. stays that way entire day. talk about exciting! haha. best to do that in a wide open track like buttonwillow.
