Invisible intermittent collision objects between checkpoints 20 and 21 when driving track in reverse

When racing the track in the opposite direction, players can collide with invisible non-permanent objects with hitboxes on the curve between checkpoints 20 and 21. The collision is inconsistent: sometimes there is no interaction even at low speeds, sometimes the ship shield is slightly reduced as if hit by a projectile, and sometimes a large invisible collision stops the ship completely.

2. Start a GROUND RACING session on VOLANT STATION.
3. Drive the track in the opposite (reverse) direction.
4. Approach and take the curve between checkpoints 20 and 21 at varying speeds.
5. Observe intermittent collisions with invisible objects; in some cases the ship is stopped completely or shield is reduced slightly.

There should be no invisible colliders on the track; driving through the curve between checkpoints 20 and 21 (even in reverse) should not cause unexpected collisions or shield damage.

When racing the track in the opposite direction, there is something invisible you can crash into on the curve between checkpoints 20 and 21.

The video shows that, even at low speeds, the object doesn't always interact with the ship.

At other times, however, it affects the shield slightly—as if it were a shot—which indicates a collision between the ship and the invisible objects.

On other occasions, when speeding through that curve during a race, you hit an invisible object that seems very large and brings you to a complete halt, as can be seen near the end of the video.
