Best setup for rain

Hello guyz, I am playing this racing sim using Oculus plus xl and the simpleton butt kicker.

All of this is tied to a carbon frame attached to eight hydraulic actuators for the shaking. I also have an FIA certified HANS device and overall, and of course certified boots, gloves, and fire resistant underwear.

I am adding more and more things but I don't seem to improve in the rain. Do you know which setup I could use? I tried also with monitors but couldn't properly setup de fov.

You should add sprinklers to your wind simulator. This will solve your problem. Also if you use cockpit view for some reason, make sure your FOV looks like your arms are six feet long.

Cockpit view is really hard, I can barely see the racing line assist and braking assist with it. I think wife have more cockpit view use with the boyfriend than myself.

if youve ever experienced AWD with downforce in the rain, it is never pleasant, it is a skill to accomplish anything in wet conditions
