I ask that you please credit Simon in this code (apologies if I missed you already doing so), he has already has his racing code reimplemented without credit

[Jettford]

and I missed it..... thanks for leaving him credit, it was a lot of work that he put into racing.

Can we merge this? I'd really like to finish this

IIRC, there were some lingering issues with, uh, communicating position updates with multiple players, or loading of objects, or something, I think? It's been a good while. Either way, though, pretty much all of racing is implemented, so it's fine by me to merge as is :+1:

I'd say we can improve racing later
