I suggest you use UDP as transport protocol. If you use tcp and one of the packages get delayed, then it will look very weird on the screen when it "catches up".
So you are saying you dont know where to start? A good place would be to learn how to send DATAGRAM packages between server/client

the server simply sends the car's positions out to the clients at the same time. Of course there won't be the same delay between the clients
