    Hi guys, just got a P1x set up this week, all good and nice apart from the fact i get a lot of backpain just 10mins into driving, i think it must be something maybe regarding my position but i cant seem to figure out why - are the pedals too high ? I used to play for 4/5 hours easily on the playseat challenge with zero pain so this is a huge bummer.

    That does sound like an ergonomic issue, perhaps take measurements from you normal car driving position and see how they relate to the dimensions used by the P1x.
