Well, I can appreciate the euro style straight arm driving position, as I also did some racing in those days and still drive that way but I didn't need to modify my car. I just have the steering wheel telescoped all the way in and the seat angled slightly and as far back as it will go at that angle. I also did some motorcycle racing which requires just about the total opposite position, so I didn't get locked into anything extreme. What formula and where did you race?
