    Well, the one I had the most fun with.... Close one...

    S.T.U.N. Runner
    Virtua Racing
    Cruisin USA
    Hard Drivin'

    Out of those four, if I got to choose one to put in my living room.... Probably Virtua Racing.
    Cruisin USA got boring pretty quick,
    Hard Drivin just doesn't have the graphics to stand up nowadays.
    STUN Runner is a VERY VERY Close second, I think those 2 are probly tied, but Most Virtua Racers are 2-player, which puts it over STUN Runner.

    Outrun and S.T.U.N.N. Runner for me.. had to decide
    Fear your thoughts because they become your words
    Fear your words because they become your actions
    Fear your actions because they become your habits
    Fear your habits because they become your character
    Fear your character because it becomes your destiny

    Therefore: Thinking and nurturing positive thoughts, at any point in your life, can change your destiny.

    Certainly I've played many home racers that are better than any arcade racer, though.

    San Francisco Rush and Rush the Rock barely edge out Daytona USA. I competed and won a couple of Rush Tournaments in my area, and by the time I quit playing Daytona I had gotten to the point where I was working on shaving 10ths of a second off my time.

    Hard Drivin'!

    I'd buy one of the machiens if I had the room for it. I wonder if they ever got it to work in MAME yet!

    The best by far is the pod racer with the controls like in the movie it is so much fun if i could only find someone selling one.

    I'm with Sylentwulf on this one... For me it's a toss up between S.T.U.N.N Runner, or Hard Drivin'... Although Hard Drivin' taught me how to drive a stick, so not only was it fun, it was educational!

    For me, it's Daytona USA (which I prefer to Daytona 2), followed by the Cruisin' series (what'd you expect from a Jarvis fan? ).

    Ha! I remember that! This was the biggest reason I learned to drive easily. They should install these in drivers ed classes just so everyone knows how to learn stick shift!

    Sanfransico Rush: Alcatraz Edition. Noramlly I don't play racing games but this one sucked me in. I can remember when we unlocked that board that was nothing but 90 degree turns. That was a riot!
