it happened to me on S1 a while ago,got rammed big time by SRNeil,but i know he wouldnt do something like that,watched the replay and he discoed straight afterwards,i think its in the code,it predicts your last direction and speed so if your connection is lost briefly it carries on until the server recieves a packet again,if it dont get the packet after a second or so,it disconnects you,but unfortunately if its in a braking situation,your `car` plows on whilst you sit at the lost connection window
