Looking for thoughts from the brain trust.

I road raced formula cars for 13 years, including ground effect cars. Before I took time off, I used to regularly do gentleman stuff in a citabria or decathlon. +3-4 g and -2. Formula cars could regularly hit lateral 3 or 4 depending on the car and track.

I have NEVER had motion sickness.

But I just did some flights in a 2B for acro training, and was motion sick. Did not puke, but first flight I was done at 20 minutes of acro, and never was able to last more than 40 minutes.

I am turning 50, so maybe that's it. And this competition stuff is much more uncoordinated than the gentleman aero, but I am feeling a bit surprised and discouraged.

Other than sleep and eating toast, any tips?
