So much so that this is the changelog from Assetto Corsa's latest release:
Assetto Corsa Competizione - Early Access v0.2 - Fixed "No VR no buy" ... [1]

This is a community that spends $500 on a steering wheel and $500-$1000 pedals are always out of stock [3][4]
That doesn't even include the $1000 direct drive wheels [5][6] or the handbrakes, shifters, triple mount displays, and $500-1000 dollar rigs [7] I won't even get into the motion rigs...
