Steam Community guide by Nartnk.

HOW TO ENABLE PLAYTIME LOG

a wonderfull person put the newest way of doing this in the comments of the guide:
@limp bizkit:
Hello friends! The correct path as of September 2nd, 2025 is the following:
Your Helmet > Account > Options > Under "General" tab, enable "Allow Steam Overlay in Simulator"
[OUTDATED]: is simple.
Open up the iracing app using the interface, click on the helmet on the top right, go to settings, then interface and enable ''use steam overlay'' if it is green it is enabled. It will log the time you are driving not when using the interface.
Additional information provided by a commenter Intynol: ''if the method described in the post did not help then try activating the parameter "use steam overlay" on members.iraicing.com in the settings.
this method helped me.''
that is all, thanks for reading.
