Is possible with some hidden option to improve the quality of the reflection in the wet? As seen in this clip are really ugly. ::)

The main problem is that the asphalt shouldn't be a smooth mirror.
It should have puddles and a normal map, too.
With proper art reflections look more realistic.
The asphalt is obviously better with puddles and a nice bump map, but I mean the real-time reflections, I think in any surfaces you can notice the pixels effect.

The reflections' resolution was kept low on purpose, to cheaply simulate the "blurriness" of reflections.

I think that's smart. Maybe worth seeing if a resolution a bit higher (for the reflection) is a better trade off.
One thing I noticed on the video (not sure if it's a problem of the track or of the engine): between 0:00s and 0:04s you can see the reflection and the shadow.
But from 0:04.5s, the shadow disappears (there seems to be a change in the track surface)..
Also, when we do see the shadow, should the shadow be blurred too ? It looks a bit strange to have the reflection blurred but not the shadow.
BTW, which KRP track is that one ?

Maybe at the cost of a performance impact, would be better a normal resolution, with a after-blur effect.
And +1 for the shadow

Rye House.
Sorry for using KRP screenshots in a GPB discussion, but this track is the one with the best reflections.
New screen with quadrupled resolution.
Probably a better compromise, as you suggested.

Much better ;)
Piboso can you please have a look at this:
