Why does Octane sometimes render in wire my scenes?
as soon as I build the rig to my cars, they turn into wireframe in octane rendering screen...
look here

is there a way to turn this OFF

I have not upgraded to 3 yet because well it's way slower than 2.

However I was wondering, are there any improvements regarding updating the geometry for animations? I ranted about this here: http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=24773
Is updating geometry faster/ slower/ same vs 2.x? Is there anything that can be done to improve time to update geom?

your car is too much distant from the origin or is too much big in scale

what you see is not wires but triangles with average coordinates, they are not stitched together.

Are you running latest drivers for your card?
I got similar issues and latest drivers fixed it for me.
