It's called Latency.

Lesson in Latency:

The game is simultaneously running on 4 computers (assume a full race). There will be a slight difference between the 4 computers because while data travels REALLY fast, it's not instant. This slight difference in time is called Latency.

To you, it appears that you are ahead. This is because your game will show YOU the status of the start before it sends this to all other computers. The others will see the same as you do. To them, they are winning at the start.

To test this thought for yourself, set up 2 computers beside each other. Get two people to log onto two different accounts and race. You will notice that what you see on the computers is very different even though they are in the same race.
