    For those wondering why the U.S. Navy patented this game, it concerns the upright cabinet. It had a special 3D visor you could wear during gameplay to make the game pop out at you, and make the scaling backgrounds move towards, simulating the actual racing experience. Of course, that was a conversion kit available for the upright. I'm not sure if they had the visor in the cockpit cabinet.

    Cant understand why so many arcade collectors pass the game by and left them to be scrapped. Its a really good driving game and only 2nd to feature 3D after Sega Subroc. Sitdown features 4 channel sound and 3 position accelerator Pedal so more like analogue than the switch used in uprights, also has brake pedal. If you get the revs right at start you take off faster than the other cars, 3D is amazing and can be switched on/off while playing. 4 Channel sound is like Dolby 5.1 where the sound goes from front to back speakers as you pass cars. The intro sounds superb sat inside it

      One major problem, and it concerns Mexico. That's actually United States Grand Prix West, based out of Long Beach, California. A bit odd, but they could've used Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, which was in the 1987 F1 Grand Prix.

      Funny how the background in the games shows all the tall buildings at a track that's supposed to be Watkins Glen, as in real life the track is out in the country, the village of Watkins Glen is a few thousand and near no major cities. Guess they had to add some flair to the game though.

    This game has dynamic weather when the tires gonna be exchanged, but the most important 'the babes' (one-piece swimsuit and the white heels, but different races) are still hot as a curly-long blonde haired re bikini girl in Out Run at Area 'A' and the chased long-haired blonde red bikini girl in Operation Wolf (running in the village on 3rd world countries are uncommon)

      I had posted a comment explaining it a while back. It's a patent for the 3D visor add-on to both the upright and cockpit cabinets for this game. I believe it played similar to Rad Racer, where the visor projected all the graphics on two different screens, giving the illusion of 3D.

    Not bad but your technique is wrong for 5 circuits on 8. You can to have 407 kmh top speed if you take correctly some strategic curves and if you have a good luck with the timing and the position of the others competitors. Exemple : Brazil. After the hairpin before the long straight line...after the long straight line...the left curves take inside et turn the sterring wheel left and straight with regularity in this curve because its not hard curve and to keep the accelerator in the floor. 1, 2,1, 2.You turn left, straight, left, straight for to prevent the rear for chasing or you lost your speed too often you have need during this curve. Before the curves after the pit its possible of to take top speed 407 kmh, its depend of the position of the competitor and your timing. Good luck !!!
