Yeah it works very well.. I have tried it both LAN and Online with the
standard F12001 and also with the GT Mod, and its great.. I'm not sure how
it copes with higher numbers of cars thoug, most I have had at one time was
3 cars on my ADSL line and that was rock solid.. but with 6 or more.. it may
get a bit flakey.. I dont know this for sure tho coz I have never tried it
with 6 cars.

It appears to work quite well, but we did have to exit the game completely
on all of the client machines after every race, because if we immediately
started a second race, the controls would become garbled. The only other
problem was the smoke created whenever someone locked the brakes going into
corners. The framerate on the machine of the person following dropped
drammatically even though the same machine could handle smoke without
problems in single player...needed to turn special effects completely off.
