Open Cockpit Racing SIM, USB fans for added realism?

Do you think adding 2x USB variable speed fans, which run faster depending on your vehicle speed, would enhance the sim experience?

Hi all, just had an idea to use 2x USB powered fans (Left & Right) for added realism is the sim world. The fan speed speed could relate to the vehicle velocity, possibly communicating via UDP telemetry, so that the faster you go the higher the fan speed hitting you in the face. Left and Right fans could provide a stereo type simulated wind forces. This would also be great for any future VR development.

I don't think this would be a hard peripheral to add to the sim racing world, but still way out of my league. This would be to suit multiple hardware sim racing setups and also simulation software and platforms.
