Project CARS - Patch 11.0 - HTC Vive support is here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/234630/discussions/0/357286119102691083/

The next Project CARS patch is now live on Steam. This one brings a host of Virtual Reality improvements, and features full HTC Vive support. We support SteamVR's room customization option when using the HTC Vive, so whenever you're in the game menus, you'll see the SteamVR room in the background. This allows you to customize the look of the 3D space surrounding the menus via the SteamVR Workshop. We're looking forward to seeing all the creative Project CARS themed custom backgrounds that our fans come up with.

We've also implemented the often-requested VR mouse support, Gaze control support, and the ability to seamlessly swap between them and use them along with Custom Controllers and Gamepads.

Due to the extent of the Virtual Reality updates, we strongly recommend that you delete the configuration files that store the various settings. These are found in "\Users\<username>\Documents\Project CARS" and are the files with XML extension.

An early video review of the Vive with Project Cars:

A good motion sim and motion profile will help reduce motion sickness as it adds reinforcing ques to help trick your brain. A poor sim and profile will do the opposite.

Your friend has likely read my intended experiment with the Vive as a possible way to do motion cancellation, but so far I have not yet had the time to try it, as I am busy with other projects at the moment.
