Have any of you encountered a glitch before where you should receive a certain car but get a different one? for example you get perfect 1st place finishes in the first 7 races with RTS and Assoulto so you should get Squalo right?

Well I was running R4 today and this happened to me. finally got the perfect run up to Shooting Hoops and instead of getting Squalo I got Estasi. and in the confusion performed badly on the final race and lost the run (potentially a 30:XX, admittedly using AT not MT but still)

To clarify I've been playing on an emulated NTSC version through epsxe 2.0 so I don't know if its my rom/emulator not working right or if this is a potential glitch in the game (this never happened to me in all the years I played my PAL physical copy on any of the consoles I've owned over those years.

Has anyone else encountered this? If so is it a one off glitch or am I never going to get a perfect run without forking out for an 90K PS2 and an NTSC physical copy of R4?

Update: It happened again, seems my rom is glitched and doesn't think that RTS Squalo exists lol

I know that MMM Squalo is fine so I'm going to try and see if PRC is unaffected too, if its ok then i'll get my sub 30 goal with them. If not then I guess I'll have to save up for a 90k ps2 and fast :/

Heyy quite late to the post, but this has happened to me multiple times when i played as a child, some times it was becaused i had retired from a race in the finals, but others because the game wanted it? I played on psx and it was the pal version, maybe i should look into it

I had the pal version as a kid too (still have it actually) but never once had a problem :/
