    Yes, I've been a fan of the Ridge Racer games since they began, and seeing that cabinet sparked interest again. Once you have mastered how to drift and slide around corners, the games are great fun.

    In fact, I will start another thread about the home versions.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Can you play them via MAME?

    Ridge Racer, Ridge Racer 2 and Rave Racer are all available and will load. I gave Ridge Racer a try a while back and it did a reasonable job of trying to emulate the game. It had sound, the game worked and everything was as it should be, but the framerate was a bit slow and meant it wasn't fully playable. It's worth a try. I've not tested it on the latest versions of MAME so it might have improved even more.
