Why can my buddy only see 12 cars ahead when he connect to me for a race, I
can see all 42. It was the same way in NR2002. It is just the 2 of us.

he needs to go to options and up the limit on his
cars ahead.

Because the server machine doesn't have to worry about bandwidth

racing on the server machine (non-dedicated server) could see all 20
cars, but people connecting could only see 4 ahead and 2 behind.
