In the mid 90’s, Anheuser Bush held a Dayton USA arcade machine tournament with linked up sit down cabinets in the St Louis, MO area and competitions were held at local bars across the St Louis Metropolitan area. Initially there were no age restrictions to join so at 13, I convinced my father to rent me a Sega Saturn from my local Blockbuster and rented Daytona USA for a week to master each stage. After winning 1st place across 3 separate bars they later changed the rules and required competitors to be 21 or older to compete. Having a little kid today smack talk you across online play is one thing, but having one beating adults so badly they had to change the rules was oh so satisfying 😂

[@slewis2363]

Never happened

[@nashvillan4lif]

I had a similar story. In the early 2000s, I was wandering around Jillians (a local knockoff of Dave & Busters) and noticed a Hydro Thunder 4 seater with 30 credits loaded on one of the cabinets and nobody sitting there. I naturally gravitated over to it and started playing. That is when I noticed a guy in another seat was playing and he was playing flawlessly. He was beating everybody without too much effort. I proceeded to challenge him to the next 10 matches and ended up beating him in 3 of them. I discovered what type of boat he was using which seemed to do well on long straightaways, so I challenged him on short track races where he had to turn more often. It worked. His boat of choice wasn't built for short track whereas mine was. After the matches, I stepped away to stretch for a bit and he approached me saying that I was the first person to ever beat him and that he was the city champ on that game! We ended up playing more matches and I beat him two more times... once again on short track.

[@That_Handle]

If this in fact, I'd imagine that the rule change to 21 years of age was not happenstance a more to do with optics for marketing. They likely did not want to see nor be seen showcasing a child who is under age of drinking alcohol as being a winner at an event that they were sponsoring. That would have been akin to Camel cigarettes having photos with their logo included alongside a child contestant. Bad Optics being the first and most likely tantamount as well as highly likely the companies wanted to join their target market and not have them frustrated by your performance trouncing that of their of age clients

[@That_Handle]

Way to represent and showcase the skills! After getting close to Perfection on Sega rally, mine became scud racer

[@lazarushernandez5827]

With all of the racing games Sega released you could easily make a top 20 list. I would add the original Outrun, Super Monaco GP, Rad Mobile, Outrunners, Sega Rally Championship, F355 Ferrari Challenge and Power Drift. Others worth mentioning: Namco's Ridge Racer, Atari's Hard Drivin'/ Race Drivin', and the Star Wars Episode One Pod Racer game.

[@diego2817]

Outrun 2006, outrun turbo, Sega rally and Daytona are the best

[@alexandersackawicz]

Ralph - Sega arcade racer guy here. If you come across an Asphalt 9 Legends Arcade DX 5D (Sim version) do you yourself a favor and play it. It's got the fans, amazing sound package, and the wildest motion seat I've ever seen. One of the of the most fun experiences I've ever had with an arcade racer - we're lucky to have a linked pair of them on the boardwalk here in Wildwood, NJ.

[@isamuu99]

Ralph your channel continues to deliver, and this video ROCKS dude! I too, am a huge arcade racing fan and at 49yrs old, grew up in the 80's playing the likes of Pole Position and OutRun. However, my TRUE love belongs to the arcade racers from the 90's a few from the 2000's, As a result, here's my personal top 10 list of arcade racers.... 1)Outrun 2 2)Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 6 3)Scud Race 4)Initial D Arcade Stage 8 5)Rave Racer 6)F-Zero AX 7)Daytona 2 8)Daytona USA 9)Sega Rally Championship 10)OutRun This order might change in the future, but as of right now, after spending years playing those games, I feel comfortable putting those arcade racers as my personal top 10. Regardless, theyyre all fantastic and you can't go wrong with any of them :) Anyway keep up the great work brother, and long live retro gaming!!

[@CHQArcade]

Awww man, Daytona. I was 10 when that came to the arcades and I remember cheering my dad on as he played this in the 4 player link set up. You could hear that icon theme from the other side of the arcade too

[@mikechannell727]

Haha the Ricky Bobby race suit. The level of commitment is off the charts. 😂

[@zonedaiatlas]

Pole Position, Ridge Racer and Speed Racer should be on that list.

[@TiltingT]

Had a super off road for a couple of years and upgraded the bearings in the steering wheels and man that made it so much better! You could spin it like crazy! ..great game!. A full cockpit cabinet Hard Drivin is still one of my "one day ill get one" games

[@crimsonshadow1140]

one arcade racer that seriously deserves more attention is Hotshot Racing, it’s an awesome love letter to this era of arcade racing

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Yeah this is a fun video ... Top 10 racing games 🥰 Hydro Thunder played that on Xbox 360 so freaking awesome !

[@slinger2112]

Were we all just introduced to Racin' Ralph, or Burnin' Rubber Ralph? Great list. Congrats on the pickup! Have a great time at Pinball Expo!!!

[@Glitch969]

Dude, Daytona definitely deserves to be in the house. This game and Q*Bert are the next two on my list Killer pick up, and it looks to be in amazing shape! 👍

[@MKF30]

I grew up on Cruis'n series and Outrun. Nice vid!

[@rasheedbedri]

New Star GP is absolutely fantastic

[@Nerbil]

Great list, thanks for the content. I would add Spy Hunter to my top 10. Console and PC ports are rough. But, the original Spy Hunter on arcade hardware is awesome. It was meant to be a James Bond game, but wasn't due to the lack of securing the license.

[@spyghetti]

I love Daytona USA Takenobu just is the best.. used to play it with Bomberman, Sega Rally and Virtual On over the net link.

[@ccffire6666]

I'm so old school and I'm proud to admit my favorite racing arcade games will always be Pole position one and two and turbo.

[@Larry]

One of my favourite arcade racers in recent times is Sega Race TV, Yu Suzuki's final game. really the last of Sega's over the top "blue skies" arcade racing! (Also Crazy Taxi if that counts here) But has there ever been a Demolition Derby based arcade game? I'd imagine that would be great fun in arcades, maybe an arcade adaptation of Wreckfest Etc.

[@mvagusta]

The OG top 10. Super Sprint Off Road Hard Driving Pole Position II Final Lap 3 Super Hang On Outrun Daytona Sega Rally 2 Virtua Racing - and yes the Switch version is amazing. Rebuilt from the ground up in HD with 8 player split screen. Special mention to GTI Club, Crazy Taxi and the Japanese games like Initial D, Wangan etc..

[@ScottOmatic]

Now this is my kind of list. I recently got back my LaunchBox emu system from a friend that was barrowing it, and have been pounding some of my favorites, such as Super Monaco GP and Hard Drivin'.. But as fun as these can be playing with an 8bitdo pad, nothing beats the arcade experience with the real controls.. So it's super awesome to see you picked up the real deal! ROOOOOOOOOLINGGG STAAAAAAAAAAAARTTT!!!!

[@bobbynip66]

I don’t argue about lists because they’re subjective . So many factors go into selecting one’s favorite games (or really anything)…a lot of it has to do with our ages…just a few years can make a huge difference. I was 16 years old when Pole Position was released…by today’s standards it’s archaic, but when released it was a literal game changer. I don’t have a super large arcade collection but there is a Pole Position cockpit right in the middle….huge sentimental value attached to it. I could never have a list of driving games where PP wasn’t at the top.

[@gmw1701]

Believe it or not our local Pizza Hut used to have a small arcade in the back. This is where I first played super off-road! Also played Super Mario 3 there before it came out for the console. Good memories! Daytona came with my Saturn. Can’t help but think of the theme song when we visit Daytona on vacation!😂

[@RetroRalph]

Man I miss pizza join arcades, those were the days. THanks so much for watching bud!

[@Evercade_Effect]

Really enjoyed this video. Daytona USA 100% number 1 and gratz on the cab. Loved Hydro Thunder on Dreamcast.

[@mrsmithers2002]

Trying to win a Cruis’n exotica on an auction right now. I’ve recently realized I’ve got more racing cabs than other games in my collection. And I’m still drawn to the driving games. Also trying to get another Harley la riders for no other reason than to have 3 in a row linked. Maybe 4 someday haha.

[@RetroRalph]

I love exotica, good luck man. If it doesn't boot up, try pushing in the EEPROMs, those boards are notorious for the ROMs coming loose. Hope you win it man!

[@mrsmithers2002]

@@RetroRalph thanks, this ones supposed to boot up and play, just doesnt steer. They have a bunch of cruisn games in the auction. I may get carried away and try to win a pair of USAs to link together if I don't get the exotica.

[@mrsmithers2002]

@@RetroRalph I won Cruis’n exotica for $200. Working but doesn’t steer. Pick it up tomorrow

[@VanDammage87]

You absolutely nailed this list! Would love to see similar videos for other genres.

[@retro_gamer1382]

I had a birthday party at Dave & Buster's and it had 6 Daytona USA. All my friends and family took over all 6 Dayton USA for pretty much the entire day and it got crazy fun once the alcohol started to kick in!!!

[@RetroRalph]

Oh man, that's the best!

[@arcadesunday4592]

Great coverage of some really cool racers from back in the day. DAYTONAAAAAA! Yes Daytona is probably one of the best arcade racers ever. It really does play well and is super challenging.

[@ScarletSprites]

Since Virtua Racing was added to this video I feel comfortable re-subscribing. (Nice work man!)

[@davidh4548]

Hey Ralph! I'm so glad you put Road Blasters on this list. I have to admit, it's often running on my ALU just because I love it so much, that an S.T.U.N.N Runner. I totally agree with you on these games!!

[@TravisMCP]

No SF Rush? I'm going to reevaluate our friendship.

[@RetroRalph]

LOL... It's ok, I've owned a SF Rush, I like the game, just had to slim the list down. I will do a part 2 at some point.... thanks for watching brother!

[@garogercade7850]

Congrats on the upright Daytona pickup! Sweet!

[@one_point21_gigawatts]

Merica is the best place LOL. Daytona and Cruisin were my favorites from the late 90's.

[@colemikay]

Epic list man! And the dedication with the costume… 🤣 your videos are the best 👍🏼

[@RetroRalph]

Thanks brother, I apprecaite you watching!

[@anthonym5395]

Excellent list Ralph, but surprised you missed out on mentioning San Francisco Rush (especially after mentioning the other Midway titles). Anyways great video as always! PS - also digging your dual colored mullet. Although you might have too many branches in your family tree to do NASCAR.

[@FunkhouserDRL]

Daytona USA had such an impact on me as a kid. It was my favorite arcade game of all time. I use its likeness for my own channel intros. Love the content bro.

[@jabotheclown617]

You crack me up Ralph 🤣 Can't mistake the legendary carpet at Joe's Video Games during the Super Off Road section lol 😆

[@thejimmichanga2913]

As a kid I remember ivan stewarts offroad racing being one of my favorite games on console. I forgot all about it until seeing it in this video. Now i want to play it again

[@dumpsterfire7916]

Excellent list Ralph... Day-Tonaaaaa!!!

[@CompleteGeekTV]

Fantastic list and enjoyed this video. I'm sad to say that I've never played Arctic Thunder. Looks awesome. Why the fan is so simple it's such a genius idea for the game.

[@shawnrainer]

Excellent shiny mullet! Great post as always. Outrun needs to come back, Unreal Engine or something of that level!

[@OverJumpRally]

May I interest you with an Unreal Engine version of Sega Rally instead?

[@arcadeerik2603]

You Rule Ralph, Love the video, Great job I want more.

OMG I lost it at your getup in the end! This was a fun watch!

[@RetroRalph]

Thanks bud, I really appreciate it! I hope all is well bud!

[@midnitepagan9118]

I payed $179 Aus to own Virtua Racing on the mega drive back in the day. Also Had it on the saturn too later on with 10 tracks and the different classes of cars/carts to race with. good times/

Fantastic. Might be my fave vid you have done....wait for it.... 5 stars our of 5... looking forward to....wait for it....the next one.

[@RetroRalph]

Thanks brother, that means a lot!!!!

[@UAG]

99% percent of these games are awesome. Now I need to visit my local arcade. Daytona is still a busy game at my local arcade.

[@RetroRalph]

I know how happy you are to see your favorite game "Roadblasters" highlighted in this video..... haha. Thanks for watching bro!

[@UAG]

@@RetroRalph I'm jumping for joy

[@ReubensLair]

Fun video! Great job 👏

[@swissmrkc]

Great list I would throw in the stand-up version of radmobil.... It's so good the first time Sonic appeared in a video game (hanging from the rear view mirror) controlling the lights in the wiper blades was fun it was just an all-around great game and to this day the only arcade I regret getting rid of

[@Xyrel24]

when it comes to Arcade Games, it's always the Japanese games that filled my childhood thanks to them ♥.

[@Bangcat]

From an arcade manager of 16 years before I had to finally give it up. This is a damn fine list. I will say that if we were to include a home list, it would be grand to venture into that as well and feature some MotorStorm games. I may have been top 5 in the world on xbox live for Burnout 3 back in the day, but I truly believe there's nothing that quite nails the vibe and physics and over all destruction of the MotorStorm series.

[@Konuvis]

Redneck Ralph is amazing! Also proud owner of the 32X and V.R. on it! For me, obviously Daytona and Cruis'n USA, Hang-On but also Star Was Racer! Love the arcade, felt like you were flying a real pod. honorable mention for Initial D!

[@garethjones2746]

A man after my own heart selecting magical sound shower for outrun. Love this outrun and the original

[@amaan8123]

Wow just before you had said only one game left, I thought how could you not mention Daytona, and then you mentioned it 😂😂😂 Fantastic

[@nickmadsen2572]

Epic as alway! “Rooooooooooling staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart!”

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

“If you don’t like this game wel you suck” brilliant and accurate

[@Inquisitor_Hackedicht]

Those arcade Halls are just so cool. It's a shame that in my country ( Switzerland) you can't find any of these anymore. Last one closed many years ago. Great vid thx mate

[@FormulaFox]

One of the remaining local arcades, as bare as they now are with classics(they're not a redemption arcade or a barcade though, thankfully), PROUDLY maintains a Super Hang On. They also have another two-seat sit-down racer with the seats beat up, ripped up, paint peeling off the cab, but it was being maintained in a state that indicates they were letting it be that way on purpose just to underline how old the game was. I can't recall what game it was, but graphically it was something I THINK from around the turn of the 90s - definitely MUCH older than Daytona USA, but much newer than Pole Position. The arcade is closed for the season and no photos exist on their web page, so I can't just go look, but if anyone wants to have the challenge of helping me recall(I'll know it on sight if I see a photo), it's a two-player side-by-side sit-down colored with ALL THE YELLOW. The seats were padded with fabric covering, as well, and if that wasn't as they came originally the arcade owner did a great job making it look original. Fun fact: Last time I was at this arcade, a 70+ year old Amish guy and his wife were playing Cruis'n Blast.

[@KillerArcadeGames]

Yeah Hydro Thunder! I have it and love it. Funny enough, I don't think I've played Arctic Thunder more than twice. Its not that I didn't care for it, I just rarely saw it. I completely slept on Fast and the Furious, never once tried it until about a year ago at Tornado Terry's arcade. Do I smell a new channel coming? Redneck Ralph?! You compare the pros and cons of single wides and double wides. Mullet hair cut templates. Skoal vs Copenhagen, etc. hahah

[@sylvainster30]

Awesome list! Sega was King with racing games! 👍🏼👍🏼 ✌🏼😎👍🏼

[@pasqualparade5799]

I had Daytona CCE on Saturn, in fact it was the first game for the system i ve got. Had the Dreamcast version too. Really good are all Midway Thunder games, Rush Series, Screamer series and Manx TT Superbike not all arcade games though.

[@MrThunderwing]

Good choices Ralph. I'd definitely add Sega Rally to this list though. Quick question: How did you get that Hydro Thunder video capture, was it from the original arcade board? It looks nicer than any home version I've played, the boats seem to look a bit shinier and everything looks like it's in HD.

[@og-ygpinball9384]

Probably the pc version

[@sergeleon1163]

Great games indeed, personally I would replace the fast and the furious with Sega Rally and surprised it's missing on your list. Also I would add a bonus game in true top down classic with Sega Hot Rod, of which I have great memories playing the four-player cocktail-style arcade cabinet back in the day.

[@Valkyrie77]

It's humorous in retrospect when I think how much crap the Daytona USA music got when it came out. People loved the game but oh my, the music got a lot of criticism. Everyone compared it to Ridge Racer and almost everyone preferred the music in that game. I myself loved the music in Daytona USA, so much so that I bought the game for the Sega Saturn before I had the actual console when I found out the music was available to listen to, on the disc itself. And now, after all this time, I can still hear the music from Daytona USA on everything from videos like this to the artist himself doing unique covers of the songs. He even made a Daytona-like song for one of the Ridge Racer games when the Daytona car was featured in that game. The Ridge Racer music, however, seems to have been forgotten... Oh, by the way... just realized you didn't have a single Ridge Racer game in your top 10 list!

[@RealziesCuts]

I enjoy HydroThunder on the Xbox series X often in 2022 🏆🎮 When the OK that was that overall people had more fun with the San Francisco Rush 2049 than Daytona. Cool story though

[@tommythrowback]

I remember waiting in line at Disney Quest in Orlando to race their Daytona setup. I believe it was the 8 player setup and would feature whoever was first on the tv. Great video as always Ralph! When is your next con?

[@RetroRalph]

Man, that must have been EPIC! I'm going to be at Pinball Expo in Chicago next week. After that, I don't have anymore planned till 2023. Thanks so much for watching bud!

[@Zehrfox]

Great video as always, and great timing for me. I built a racing Cab a month ago, runs on PC, with Logitech G25 wheel, pedals and shifter, 32" TV and speakers with subwoofer. Has 65 games on it currently, with another 150 that need setup and configured. I must thank you, one of my top 3 games on it is Outrun 2SP. I saw you play it on a live stream, and I loved Outrun back in the day, and this new version is amazing. It is the game I show people first. I LOVE RoadBlasters, but sadly I cannot get the wheel to steer correctly in MAME. I have adjusted settings for hours, and it is still barely controllable. RoadBlasters plays better on my other cab with a GRS spinner, which is fun, but just wrong. I plan to build a cab with the GRS Yoke, and I hope then RoadBlasters will control better.

[@RetroRalph]

That sounds awesome man! I really think I need to consider a multi racer. I think that's totally the way to go. I think you're doing it right, I need to bite the bullet and built one. Thanks so much for watching bud, I hope all is well!

[@kami_vega]

outrun 2 top 3 imo 😔 that was my childhood

[@Bangcat]

Fun Fact is that Daytona's hardware was actually super expensive, and worked on by some extremely higher up sources than you'd think work on game hardware. It rivaled what most government simulation machines had at the time. Super important step in arcade gaming. And you should really check out the lesser known DAYTONA 2.

[@Adam-uh4jl]

Sega rally and outrun was my favourite

[@RetroRalph]

Both awesome games! Sega killed it when it came to ... well... everything. LOL

[@seann6061]

Great list! If I had to make any suggestion, it would be booting VR off and putting on Rush the Rock 👍

[@RetroRalph]

I got that a lot, I really should have included Rush the Rock.

[@XeCuTioNR]

I agree with a good chunk of the list. To add a few of mine, no particular order.. Dirt Dash, Ridge Racer, Ace Driver Victory Lap, Rush 2049, Off Road Thunder, Sega's Nascar Arcade, Rad Mobile, Outrunners, F-Zero AX, Wangan Midnight, Race Drivin'

[@franklinlester]

I kind of preferred the Sega Saturn version of Daytona USA Championship Circuit Edition over the original Arcade and Saturn versions.

[@SNKBossSyndrom]

Great video ^^ Daytona was truly an experience and still rocks today. If you have the possibility give the Switch version of Virtua Racing a try, it’s really a joy.

i was expecting modern arcade indie games such as horizon chase. ridge racer revolation and road rash are my favorites. actually i can't decide between ridge racer revolution and ridger racer type 4, they're so differents, but the for has an unique style, and i have nostalgia for my very first playstation game also. nice vid, thanks !

[@iansrven3023]

Daytona USA is epic, i have the PS3 version with steering wheel / pedals and play on a projector, epic experience

[@KongsRUs]

I Love lists! Outrun 2 has sneakily become one of my favorite racing games of all time. Is your list a Countdown ranking or just a general top 10 list?

[@RetroRalph]

Yeah, Outrun2 is awesome! It's just my list, it was a challenge to boil it down to 10 of them. There are so many good racers out there, it's just my general list. I will likely do a follow-up and add more of the other ones I enjoy as well. Anyhow, thank you for watching!

[@KongsRUs]

@@RetroRalph yea, was curious if this was in ranking order. Surprised if Outrun 2 was your #10! It would be top 3 for me. And great #1 choice, the sequels are pretty good too, but original is still classic!

[@RetroRalph]

With all due respect, are you being serious? I didn't think the video needed an explanation but... OK. - It's not in any specific order - It's not a countdown ranking - It's "my" top 10 list Of course limiting it to 10 makes it much more difficult. Racing games are my favorite genre of arcade games, so I like A LOT of them. I feel like you're trolling or something because it's pretty self-explanatory, but I hope that clears it up for you.

[@KongsRUs]

@@RetroRalph sorry, absolutely not trolling so was genuinely curious! When I see top 10 list, I usually think rankings. As I watching the video, it seemed more like a more general top 10 list, not in any order. But then when you got to Daytona, it made it seem like your #1 game. Hope that makes sense!

[@chickenfkeryay]

Never played half of these, outrun 2 looks legit fun. I didnt like outrun that much but from the video #2 reminds me of cruisin. Maybe this would be a good pickup of a1up does a rerelease. Virtua racing and daytona are so good to me. Home console versions with extra tracks make these games even better. Wish i had vr on 32x or saturn as i only rented them.

[@olivierluminais]

At 6:48 Funny to me, this game was called Fire And Forget, in arcade rooms in France!!!
