Black Box Selector

Open any of iRacing’s black box overlays directly, or cycle through them sequentially. Direct-selection acts as a toggle — pressing a button opens the black box, and pressing it again while that black box is already selected closes it.

Select the mode from the Mode dropdown in the Property Inspector. In Direct mode, also pick which overlay the button opens from the Black Box dropdown.

Open a specific black box overlay. Pressing the button toggles the overlay — press once to open, press again to close. The Black Box setting picks which overlay the button controls.

  • Dial: Rotation cycles through black boxes (clockwise = next, counter-clockwise = previous), using the Cycle Next / Cycle Previous bindings regardless of which black box is selected
  • Default binding: Depends on the selected black box — see the Black Box setting below
  • Telemetry-aware icon: No
