About the game:
Pole Position II is the sequel to racing simulation game Pole Position, released by Namco for arcades in 1983.
The gameplay is the same as in the original Pole Position with three additional tracks to choose from: Test (resembling Indianapolis Motor Speedway), Seaside (resembling the 1982 United States Grand Prix West circuit in Long Beach), and Suzuka. Like its predecessor, Pole Position II was a major commercial success in arcades, becoming the highest-grossing arcade game of 1984 in the United States, and remaining among the annual highest-grossing arcade games in Japan and the United States through 1987.
About the run:
The goal is to get a good lap time in the qualifying. The race itself goes on for forever so there is no chance of winning it.
Pretty decent lap so far but it should be possible to improve this time by a 1-2 seconds.
