i remember back in the day when i used to play the coin op on holiday in paignton. i'd play it that much the moving plastic seat would do my back in after a bit, so i'd stop playing and then go on power drift and super hang on.
If the Genesis version had somehow looked this good I would've been spaying come everywhere throughout my early teenagehood!
They should've released an arcade perfect (read: looking like this; as fast as this) for the MegaCD or 32x systems. I would've bought the overpriced hardware and cart/cd just to play it.
I've never played this game before, but this game is astounding. It's a real quantum leap as far as racing games go. An absolutely advanced racing experience. Pole Position was still the godfather of a lot of future racing games, but this game offered highly detailed environments even for a game of its time. Everything moves smoothly and looks great. Everything is made of sprites, but you couldn't really tell on first glance. A true classic.
I loved this 20 years ago in the arcades. The bass from the intro sequence always drowned out most other sounds in the building!

Doubt the MegaCD'd handled it. The 32x should have done so, though. Shame it never happened.
