Reflections are very weird in the game.. The track surface isn't like
a mirror, and rendered onto the track, it's like the screen is just
flipped and rendered down into the track. *shrug*
(and dont mind the black triangles ;p)

And there is no alternate reflection technique =(
for reflection it's either 1 for on or 0 for off =(
Now I'm going to go try running normal V3 drivers on my V3500 and see
if my computer explodes (and the triangles go away ;)
I've put up some random shots from Monaco and Hockenheim
in full rain (JPGs, so there is some quality loss).

.
Mind you, my comment was only aimed at the black triangles and
blocky rain textures on the street; of course I'm also getting the
physically "wrong" reflections.
Also visible on some of the pictures are the problems the game has
with Z-buffering. I.e. occasionally you see cars behind the armco,
houses or even below the track surface, most notably in Monaco with
its steep elevation changes and tight corners.
Let's hope this really is a beta and the final _has_ been improved
in the graphics department.
