-  Particle system to simulate it's raining heavily over an item/kart.
-  It should be applied no matter if kart is flying or on (any) ground,
-  and rotate to always fire up, it just simulates the rain bouncing
-  off the kart and being fired by wheels. It could also be applied to
-  bowling balls, for example.
