I would rather play racing games like this then say gran turismo boring this is fin the way games should be!!

[carmatic]

its a good thing that NASCAR is trying to increase the number of road courses that they race on.... if their courses are going to look anything like this, its only going to make them more interesting to watch

[Ace9921]

@carmatic - I certainly enjoy when the Nationwide series comes to Montreal, so to have more road courses would make for some really interesting races. It already gets pretty crazy when the Nationwide series races here.

I just wish the Sprint Cup series would race in Montreal.

@Ace9921 some good driving there m8

[Cazkumali]

@Ace9921 One day are you going 2 do a gaming session of Daytona USA 2

[Ace9921]

@Cazkumali - If I get the original board or if Sega Model 3 emulation becomes as good as Sega Model 2 emulation has become, then yes. Otherwise, no.

[bluelink9]

well done ace. you are the master of Daytona USA. you're much awsomer playing this game better than I do even when I play some other racing game like mario kart and etc.

[Musicknower2]

Say, are you beginner or expert?

If you're beginner, choose automatic.

[Ace9921]

@Musicknower2 - No way in HELL am I ever using automatic transmission. The only time I'll ever use it is if the shifter on a Daytona USA cabinet is broken. Manual transmission gives you more speed, especially through the curves.

[HarlemHyena]

@Ace9921 Hell if I knew.

And you were talking about a broken stick earlier? One time I ran into broken PEDALS. Needless to say: DNF'd.

That right there shows why arcades are so few and far between: lousy upkeep.

[Ace9921]

@HarlemHyena - Some arcades REALLY don't know how to take care of their cabinets. I saw a Daytona USA 8-player linked cabinet in an arcade at Hampton Beach where Player 7's cabinet had some severe graphical errors and in the three times I've been there(within a span of 4 years), the cabinet was NEVER fixed. I believe one of the cabinets there even had an improperly calibrated gas pedal. They even have a G-LOC cab with a broken motion-sensitive seat. That thing was still broken.

[Ace9921]

Sometimes, it makes me want to become an arcade technician. I'm already very knowledgeable with home console hardware, so I feel it's time to bring it up a notch and start fixing arcade boards(well, for myself first, as I'm looking for several arcade boards).

[HarlemHyena]

@Musicknower2 Apparently YOU'RE the beginner since you keep telling everyone to use Auto.

Whatever happened to "To each his own?"

[Ace9921]

@HarlemHyena - I'm a long-time Daytona USA player(played it for well over 6 to 7 years), so I know A) how to get through the tracks and complete a race and B) when to shift gears. Besides, the Hornet is faster with a Manual transmission, so I'll stick with a Manual Hornet unless I'm playing on a Daytona USA cabinet with a broken shifter.

[HarlemHyena]

@Ace9921 Trust me, I know you're good. Heck, I'm still practicing drifting w/ a stick.

That comment was aimed at Musicknower2 because he says that on just about every Daytona video, and it's driving me up a wall.

[Ace9921]

@HarlemHyena - >.<

You're never gonna get anywhere with the Automatic transmission in Sega racing games. Why does Musicknower2 insist people use the Automatic transmission when playing Daytona USA?

[az98411]

hey at 5.57 you can see the old version of the phantom from daytona usa 2 anyone agree with me

[richardmaudsley77]

annnnd my sega saturn crys.

[jorant]

Wow, great video. Thank you so much for sharing!

[DISTINTODETO2]

In the last and tricy tricky turn, the best way to front it (IMO) is enter in the turn in gear 3, then drift in gear 2 untill to stabilize the car. Works for me

Graet video

[fdpoiuy]

What wheel do you use? G25 or another one?

[Ace9921]

G25.

[alvieao2]

Ah, the statue of Jeffry McWild from Virtua Fighter in Seaside Street Galaxy (expert)... I love this game. Great job, Ace!
