I was never really a fan of any arcade racing games ever since the good old days of Cuisin' USA and the Ferrari F355 racing simulator, but this is something I could get into, literally.

Check out these pics.  Leave it to Japan once again to have all the coolest stuff.  I was never a fan of the Initial D arcade games, but this is just sweet.  I'm wondering where they sourced these bodies from (what happened to the motors?)  That FD is so clean, not to mention the GC STi.  Not only do you get to sit in these to play the game, they tilt accordingly.  Yet another reason for me to go to Japan.  Too bad one game costs 5 bucks, I miss the days when arcade games were reasonably priced.  We could play Lucky and Wild for a fraction of that (epecially once we found the key to the machine and went back to play for free on a regular basis.)  I think I may have dated myself with that reference.
