Majora's Mask timing problem

[Neo-Kamek]

While playing Majora's Mask, I've run across three cases of "timer lag". What happens is if you're in an event where you get an on-screen timer, such as the confrontation with the Skull Kid, the beaver race in Great Bay, or the Spirit House in Ikana, the timer will run normally, but at some point BEFORE the timer runs out, it will cut immediately to 0'00"00 and your time will be up. I've had the timer do this to me when I've had as little as fourteen seconds to as much as three minutes left on the timer.

I don't know what to do about this. It's made the beaver race impossible, and the Spirit House <s>a lot harder (but probably still beatable)</s> almost impossible. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

i have the same problem it's completely impossible to beat the beaver race, i always have around 6 rings left even though i'v made a completely clean super race which i should have won, it pisses me off
