I repaired the OS/B file I have, the silent part of music was caused by a missing sector 128 zeros which should've held data, and there were 2 more bad bits. The file size 14912 should have $0A at offsets $5F2 and $619, instead of $09. I compared 3 versions: OS/A file here, OS/B on a disk, and broken OS/B on a file size 14912. All 3 are supposed to differ in 2 regions only, at small code routines found both at the beginning and at the end. The 2 byte sequence "09 d0" appears 4x and the sequence "0a d0" appears 3x. Bad bits caused 09 d0 to show 6x and 0a d0 to show once.

This is the OS/A version. Match Racer was updated probably by the original author for running on OS/B and higher, but my copy of the update is broken, for one thing there's a big awkward silence in the middle of the title music, the broken update I have is 14912 bytes, original OS/A file is 15483 bytes.
