    VR sim racing is awesome. Been at it since the CV1, then the index and now a Quest 3. Visual clarity has improved massively. There still is room for improvement and you do need a beefy PC to get the most out of the modern headsets. But as an experience it is unmatched, I still get giddy every time I do a session.

      Vr is really good to learn new tracks and to perfect braking points because of the depth of field, but I still prefer my triples for long races. Quality is great, though, on both, at least on my rig.
      I think I'd play vr more if I didn't live in such a hot and humid area.

      Vr is too tiring for me. I own a quest 3 and it's just too hot and heavy. I play vr for immersion especially in rally since judging distance is more important when you don't know the stage.
      But for anything longer than 20 mins I'm gonna go for my 4k 70 inch setup.

    Not enough people know unfortunately. I was just going back-and-forth with somebody in the comment section on a Meta Quest group in Facebook. This guy was convinced that AC was the best VR racing Sim experience to be fair I think it’s the only one he owns. I tried to tell him that AC ‘s VR support feels very Jenkee compared to AMS2. AC is a great Sim I’m not knocking it, but for VR AMS2 has the best VR support.

    Wow that looks great. I didn‘t even hear about the headset you are using. How many FPS can you gain while driving? I am using a Pico 4 but can only run it at max 45FPS with a RTX3090. Your headset connects via DP, right? That brings much more performance.
