    I'm interested in adding a couple of fans and ducting to simulate speed for sim racing. For those who have already done it, is it just a good way to cool down when using VR or does it add to the immersion? I can see the appeal for open wheel cars, but is it any use for fully enclosed cars with a windscreen and roof? Obviously you wouldn't normally feel the change in wind with these cars but I'm wondering what people use it for - is it really just for formula 1 cars etc?
