Just some suggestion @kopper regarding feeling off.

You may just be sensitive but generally feeling off is caused by a mismatch between what you see and feel and what your brain thinks it should be. If it is the motion that induces the feeling then likely your motion profiles need more refinement. Perhaps focus on the haptic side of forces rather than gross movement.

For many people who are sensitive GinSeng can help if taken before you start.

Last, you should stop as soon as you feel the slightest bit off, as pushing it only tends to make the unpleasant effects last so much longer, which for some people is hours after they have stopped. Small amounts of the experience often generally allows most people to become acclimatised. If you push it and make yourself feel ill your body will remember that and the natural reaction is to heighten the sensitivity in future experiences.

Last night, for the first time, I had to stop motion. I was a bit tired but since I forgot my PC on while on the Trento-Bondone (Barcelona-Real Madrid had just begun ) I decided to make another lap. At some point it was just too real and my body couldn't take it anymore.
I learned the lesson: not drive with motion when you feel tired

Good stuff! I will practice all you mentioned. I am sure my profiles do need lots more work. Guess I just got discouraged. Thank you my friend! @noorbeast
