:o You can destroy that thing?!?!? It took me so long to learn how to get past it without getting pinned and I still can't do it every time. Learn something new everyday I guess ;D
Thanks

Yeah, that tip was really useful. The big truck ain't so tough. If you find the right spot (near the front) then you won't take any damage from it either.
@Hewskie - I read your post about the barrels and figures that the only way to do it was to "zone". When I got there I did a few donuts to keep the bad guys busy, and hoped for some of them to slide into the barrels. whether that worked or not, I kept an eye out for a gap or some blue barrels and made my runs appropriately. Seemed to work and I didn't die ... !
I just had a dream run - got thru the first two levels on one guy. But trashed the car near the end of lv2 and had to walk over the bridge!
I got 60100. I had never been to lv3 --BINGO! Either that, or I was attempting to say "before" but it was too many letters to type--, so I died pretty quick. Will try to post pics later.

I want to win so I can pick Black Tiger. But several stars and galaxies will have to align for that to happen and I suck at gambling!

More squeaking past! 74,900
It took a week (much of which was MAME PC upgrade/repair/recovery...) before I could sit down & play a few games.
Does everybody else notice slowdown when there are more than a few things on-screen? I think MAME is still running @ 100% speed, so I guess the original game had some slowdown...?
Thanks,

Hewskie:
yes I do notice the slowdown, I think it's kinda funny that mame would choose to emulate that
I'll have to step my game up!
