With a helmet it is uncomfortable to sit in the car for sure, however it is possible... With a little bit of a crooked neck. For track sessions 20 minutes at a time it's fine. I don't notice after the first lap. I just lean back the seat more, and tilt my head a bit towards the center of the car so my head/helmet is inside the sunroof frame.

I think the sunroof is worth it overall though. It lets a lot of light in and makes the cabin feel less claustrophobic. Plus you can crack open the sunroof to hear the exhaust more.
IDK how you do it! I'm 6'2" and have a real annoying time with my helmet touching the headliner (No Sunroof)
