That's brilliant, I always thought it was just not there, not that it was simply an asset in the wrong folder!
Now, if there's any way to get the end animations (volcano, shuttle lift-off, etc) working, then that'd be amazing. I remember chap from Sumo saying they were big videos overlaid into the game; they were added to the PS2 Japanese port, not sure about others (presumably Outrun Online Arcade has them).
