Text is borrowed from Race2Play. Give it a try if you have framerate issues at night races.
----------
Max Headlights="8" // Max headlights visible relative to your car. Headlights On Cars="0" // Headlights illuminate other cars.
The "Max Headlights" line determines how many headlights rFactor draws, in relative distance to your car. This number includes both cars in front and behind.
The "Headlights On Cars" line determines whether or not all headlights drawn will reflect off car bodies. This effect can put a great stress on your system. Not only does it have to draw realtime reflections when the headlights of your car illuminate your opponents, but it also draws realtime reflections from the headlights of all your opponents when they shine on other cars. Depending on how many headlights you have set in the "Max headlights" line, this can grow exponentially very fast, suddenly putting very high stress on your system.

Great tip F1. I'll mess around with the settings and see how it does. My reflection on other cars must already be set at 0 as my headlights never illuminate them. Always has bugged me.

I spent $550 on my GPU (4 GB 670, with overnight three year extended warranty) at F1's recommendation. I refuse to do anything to reduce the strain on it.

And I plan to stay there. No more SLI set ups for me. I am going to take Custom PC's advice and go single GPU. I will get a new top end GPU in two to three years, once my 670 is outdated.
