Daytona USA VS play - online glitches

For the most part, the arcade version of Daytona USA runs rather well over the internet, especially considering that it was never designed to play over high-latency connections with frequent packet loss. It's certainly not perfect though, and this video demonstrates a couple of glitches that can happen.

In the first part, the players have selected Real Players Only mode to get rid of purple CPU cars, but the packet(s) that dictate this info are apparently lost en route to my computer. So, there are stationary purple cars on my machine but none for the other 3 players.

In the second part, something screwy happens with the collision detection and my car loses speed in the final stretch, costing me the race. Not sure what happened here.

Hm, all foreground objects disappear except for the cars.

Seems to be the same thing that happens on the advanced track, actually.

Ive seen it happen twice, and twice only. It only ever happened on multiplayer races over internet.

No, this is something unusual. This never happens when I played this in the cinema arcade.

That's strange, because I have never hit an invisible wall on the final stretch, and this never happened to lucisac, when he goes into that final stretch.
