Since the original Ridge Racer was released, there have been a lot of sequels released in the Arcade, and also more versions for home systems.

But what was your favourite Arcade version? (these are just arcade releases, not including the many more home only versions released over the years).

For me it was the third game in the series, Rave Racer. More cars, some customisation, more interesting tracks, which required a lot more practice to get right, but once mastered they were great fun to race around. Especially one quite tricky bend on the first track which I remember so well. For beginners they could never get around that corner without crashing, but once mastered it was the favourite corner of the track.

I had Rave Racer on the Playstation and played it a lot to master it. Jumping on the arcade version I could instantly get some good lap times and win the races. I bet I couldn't even get around the tracks without crashing these days!
