I can't wait for #VRheadsets to become so light it's like wearing glasses. #simracing is literally next level in #VR. Especially with the new #buttkicker But I can only wear the #oculusquest2 for so long before I'm fatigued. (I know some can wear them all day and you're lucky!)
Been running #VIR all weekend with the #porsche #gt4 in #iRacing on triples. Hopped into VR and after a few laps I was already negative delta by nearly a second. 🤷‍♂️

If only they took the processing hardware out of a kit like Pico4 or Quest3 to make them PC only, you'd get the lightest, most capable form of VR possible. A distant hope would be something on par with a snowboard mask in size and weight. The quest2 in particular, without any comfort options like the better strap and more comfy padding, is among the least comfy kits I know. Also make sure your IPD and in-sim settings for lock-to-horizon etc is ideal for your preferences, as that reduce eyestrain and nausea a lot.

As for "immediately not being as fast as on triples", you will need an adjustment period, this goes both ways.
