Why DiRT Rally 2.0 VR triggers motion sickness
Circuit racing holds a mostly level horizon; rally pitches it over crests, yumps and cambered gravel corners while the car slides. That is far more rotational motion through your view per minute. The linked thread is a brand new headset owner, already prone to car sickness, working out how far they can push sessions. Seat time in calmer sims first is the community's standing advice.
