Were there ever any 3-screen arcade racing games?
Dcpmark:
I know there have been a few PC racing games that supported multiple monitors, but any in the arcade?
Thanks in advance.
BadMouth:
off the top of my head:
TX-1
Sega F355 Challenge
Hard Drivin'/Race Drivin'
I know the multiple screen versions of F355 and Hard Drivin' aren't emulated.
I'm thinking TX-1 has all three screens in MAME, but there was some other issue. I haven't tried it in a while.

Here comes Xiaou2 to complain how he donated money and ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- to MAME and the 3 to 5 screens in Race Driving arent emulated.

Thanks!
I've been obsessing about building a SMALL sit-down cab with 3 LCDs (2 folding away when not in use) for both racing and flying games. F355 would work nicely, but I just read it used 4 Naomi units! I think I can understand why it's not emulated yet. The F355 cabs themselves are still pricey at $6k - $7k, so I guess I'll have to stick with a 3-screen PC racing cab instead unless I can find a cheap non-functioning F355 with working innards.

Although the games didn't originally have 3 screens, I know people have succeeded in getting Supermodel emulator to run across three screens using the video cards app. (eyefinity or NVidia surround...don't remember which) This might have been a newer SVN build that isn't available on the supermodel site yet.
Daytona and Sega Rally can be ran in a custom widescreen resolution in Model 2 Emulator (no other games can), so it might work with those also.
The main thing is that your video card allow you to specify one crazy wide resolution that covers all three screens. (ex 720x3840).
The emulators don't really support three screens, but they allow you a custom resolution which can be set to the proper dimensions.
It doesn't stretch the image, just renders more to each side of the original HUD.
