How it seems MAME does not emulate GP 500 properly, is there any emulator that will work?

Any chance that MAME will do it in the future?

This game is NOT working in MAME This game works in MAME
In MAME since version: .083
Save state support: Not supported
Emulation status: Preliminary
Color emulation: Good
Sound emulation: Imperfect
Graphics emulation: Imperfect
Protection emulation: Preliminary
Palette size: 32768
The MAME driver of this game is: namcos23.c

Been dumped.  In MAME. 
Someone would have to take an interest in working on it.

- 0.148: Small update, you can now navigate in 500 GP testmode [hap]. Swapped region data roms ($1000000/1). Added 2nd Player.

 - 0.147u3: Prevent 500 GP locking up [hap].

 - 0.137u4: O. Galibert added a quick hack to make 500 GP boot.

Looks like hap did a few things with it not too long ago, but I wouldn't expect it to be fully emulated anytime soon.

your best bet is going to be the pc port of it.

I hope someday it will work.... :(
