Can't really compare since that particular cassette probably has not been dumped yet, but I am not sure.

Comparing what had been announced last year and current status of file: src/mame/drivers/decocass.c

These 3 have yet to be supported/added:

Lock'n'Chase (Japan original no rev)
Pro Tennis (Japan original no rev + fix for incorrect dongle read)
Graplop (Japan original no rev)

Burnin' Rubber turned out to be Bump 'n' Jump

Burnin' Rubber (Japan original no rev)
Bump 'n' Jump (Japan original no rev)

And these 3 were added.

--
Fishing (Japan original no rev, redump with newer tools)
Hamburger (Japan original no rev, redump with newer tools)
Super Double Tennis (Japan original no rev, redump with newer tools)

Of the cassettes that were announced last year, but not yet supported, I am not sure if the cassettes were not readable or dongles missing.

There are still a sizeable number of alternate versions of DECO cassettes (dongles included) yet to be found and supported.
