editing .cam file has no effect?

Hi all, I wanted to somehow change the seating position in the cockpit view of GTR evo to be further forward than most cars allow.

After some searching on the forum I think I understand how to edit the .CAM file to affect the changes I want, but after editing it, there seems to be no change in game...

BTW; I'm trying to edit the .cam files for the GTR2forGTRevo addon. the location of the file I've been editing is:
c:programfiles/steam/steamapps/race07/gamedata/teams/gtr2/gt/ferrari 575/ferrari_575.cam

here is the section that i believe controls the cockpit cam:

LocalCam=COCKPIT // Cockpit cam - Karsten Borchers 2007
{
Fov=(82.500000, 70.000000)
Clear=FALSE
Color=(164, 218, 249)
ClipPlanes=(0.1000, 1500.000000)
LODMultiplier=(1.000000)
Size=(1.000000, 1.000000)
Center=(0.500000, 0.500000)
MipmapLODBias=(0.000000)
Flags1=(0)
Flags2=(0)
RadiusLimits=(0.000000, 0.000000)
OrientationRate=(999.000000, 999.000000, 999.000000)
PositionOffset=(0.000000, 0.000000, -0.550000)
OrientationOffset=(-0.100000, 0.000000, 0.000000)
Radius=(0.000000)

I changed the last value in the"positionoffset" line to be -0.55 instead of 0.000000, and the position of the camera in cockpit view hasn't changed at all. anyone know why this might be?
am I editing the wrong place? doing it incorrectly? - or maybe there is a way to increase the adjustability of the "seat position"?

any help would be great, thanks a million guys
 
Use your mousebuttons (click left or right) and move your mouse back and forth when you are in the game and you don't need to edit any files :)
