Title: Hard drivin', Race Drivin'
Post by: pincky on August 29, 2007, 04:58:46 pm
Anyone got any good stories about these 2 games
IMO easy on my top 10 best arcade games of all time.

i'm 26 now so in 1992 i was 11,
i'm from riverside,ca
there's a Castle Park in my area
and I remember they had  the Race drivin' machine it was the sit down one
I remember it was $.50 or $.75 to play!!! (expensive when your 11 years old).
I would only play that game (i actually learned how to drive stick-shift on that arcade!)
they had the 3 screen'ed one also but I forgot what it was called) that one was a $1.00 to play!!!!
ahh good memories
anyone else have memories of this game??

I used to love crashing in that game and that weird music that played while watching the replay of that crash. It was so long ago, i don't think that game really holds up these days but it was fun.

yeah I REMEMBER THE CRASHING MUSIC ALSO!!!!
the funniest is when you would go have a jump wrong and do a bunch of flips in the air


dam what a great game!

Great games .... I have a cockpit race drivin that is  loads of fun to play.   I never wasted the time the arcade to watch the crash scene that took away the few seconds that I might need to complete the lap....

Wasn't the one with three screens called Race Drivin' Panorama?

They had one of those at a place in Northern California where we'd go when I visited my aunt, I forget the name of the place but it was a huge bar and restaurant and arcade and candy store . . .  Awesome place.
