Subject: [PATCH] * As predicted, remove FAULTing from simply becoming a
 spectator at the start of the race - only apply it if you attempt to rejoin!
 * Mark FAULTing players as in pain, preventing you from using your rings in
 mid-air (which is especially egregrious when re-entering the race from being
 a spectator uses the item button).
