iRacing is now utilizing the Brass Monkey engine http://playbrassmonkey.com/ to provide integration between your tablet/smart phone and iRacing. By downloading the brass monkey client from your app store you can now use your tablet or phone as a digital dash or even as a driving controller. Simply launch the Brass Monkey client on your phone, and click the iRacing link once the simulator is up and running. Tapping the steering wheel or HUD icon in the upper left will allow you to switch between displays. The app.ini key [Brass Monkey] BMAllowDrive=1 allows you to shut off the driving controls permanently.
