Well well well... since disabling the OpenXR Toolkit and using SteamVR settings to get an equivalent IQ (2.5x supersampling), I can now race in the rain again.
21 opponents using the Amuse NISMO 380RS Superleggera (which has a 440k LOD A) at Aviano, at night, in the heaviest of thunderstorms.
Didn't miss a beat, locked 90fps with my Reverb G2/RTX4080/i9-13900 and Oasis drivers, CSP 0.3.0p120.
I couldn't even hot lap in light drizzle during the day before.
Happy.
Edit: even better performance with preview 132.

This build is the real deal.
Locked rock-solid 90fps in the heaviest thunderstorm at night, St Croix E (longest route on quite a heavy track), full grid of Kunos M3 E30s, me starting at the back, max number of cars casting headlights, my car headlights casting proper shadows, most graphics settings very high or maxed.
This is all with 2.5x supersampling in the Reverb G2, Oasis drivers, RTX4080, i9-13900. SteamVR, OpenXR toolkit disabled.
I've never had performance like this before.
