I was just in a race with 2 randoms when suddenly my car stopped dead for a fraction of a second. (Before anyone aware of my racing ability asks, no I hadn't hit something, I was on a totally clear road). This happened twice more and then again but this time the car would not start moving at all so I couldn't do anything other than re-spawn. Then it got even weirder and the car suddenly jumped really high in the air. I assume this wasn't happening to the other two players because before it started I was well in the lead but they overtook me. The race was Dodge's Circuit of LSIA which we played with no problems on last night's playlist and I re-ran it with no problems on my own after the gltiched race. So is this a glitch or was it some sort of cheat one of the other players was performing?

Crashing into invisible objects or not being able to start or move the car again, is something that has happened to me as well on a limited number of occasions. I've always thought that was just a bug or glitch.

 

Being thrown into the air seems weird. I do see others being all over the place at times, but that's just due to lag.

Something similar happened with me recently.

 

After taking the last corner in Onrefne's XDBX GP I hit an invisible object and went flying in the air.

 

Also,in non contact races I've felt other players crashing/bumping into my car.This is something I've experienced more than 2-3 times.

I would say it's more of a bug in the game. There has been so many things going wrong lately and I can't work out why since there has been no updates. Maybe they have been hot fixing things to prepare for heists and inadvertently caused more problems.

As long as it doesn't keep happening..

I think that has happened to me as well in a couple of recent races. I had thought it was maybe me hitting some wreckage like a street lamp that another player had knocked over and i'd not noticed. But it did seem more like when someone just nudges you in a standard race.

 

So it does look like random glitches not cheats. I guess that's a relief. I'd rather this be bugs than someone finding a way to deliberately mess with other players.

 

 

I do wish I had managed to get a screen shot or video of my car flying hundreds of metres up into the air though. Annoying as it was it was still quite impressive!

i get the half second lag now and then where my screen freezes and i fall back positions for no reason. never hit invisible objects or come to a dead stop/can't gas for no reason yet. 

shooting into the air only happens to me when i run over a single tire from a knocked down tire stack like on my XDBX GP track. and u can get bumped by others in non-contact if there is an object between u like a little piece of a fence.
