Mental Ray can't render IBL in long distance

Hi

This is an emergency. I was rendering with Mental Ray Maya 8 with IBL sphere. Floor is a NURBS Plane with DGS for reflection.

With the resolution gate on, as soon as I render the last frame and the plane floor is outside the resolution gate, it renders black.

So I put another NURBS plane to make a wall with the DGS node, but it reflected all the IBL light straight to the racercar and I can still see black where there is no geometry in the 3d space.

What should I do?

Many thanks.
