Can´t find the pic of it, so you have to trust me.... (and i´m not good at it..)
I´m sure this is a game a lot of people have....

Maybe we could have a table for each destination, make it more interesting and encourage playing different stages... each route would probably be overkill :)

That's Jon MooMooTown's score at the top... he can get loads more than that but might as well have that in there too.

I have been Scouting around for a while now and cannot find anymore information about the

Twin Galaxies World Record for Outrun.

Was this ever confirmed at all with evidence?

The Score vs Time scoring system makes it hard to work out if its possible and with the

different Dip settings that may be used, how much could it change it the High Score?

My Latest OutRun High Score Board.

Catching John Beresford Up. But some way off the W/R.

Done on my Standard Upright Cab with Correct Dip Switch Settings.

Time Adjustment = Normal

Number of Enemy = Normal

Going Sub 4.49 is going to be a Good Run.

Always surprised that a game that is so popular as Outrun and that lends itself so well to highscores does not have more of a 'running' scene.

I've never been much of a high score achiever on video games, but I'm not bad at OutRun

I think my best is a tad over 35 million, but no photo proof, so here's my best with evidence on my original upright cab - all normal settings.

Didn't have the enhanced romset back then, so this was the first run of the day

BTW the huge scores were achieved with the gear-gacha technique, which I personally don't count as genuine high scores. I know there is a certain skill to getting it right, but I see it as exploiting a glitch in the code and removes the need for the skill of actually staying on the road and mastering the genius that is OutRun.

My best so far is a 4:52 which was done over at Neon Knights on their Outrun cab. Have yet to beat this on my own machine though.

Great to see some good times going up, on a long overlooked High Score Board.

Lets get up as many members times as possible.

I have seen something that looks like that on MAME High Scores on YouTube,

but what a waste of time that is!

Just to Clarify that some Pretty Fast High Scores on OutRun are Possible without

any form of Cheating in any way.

I think anyone using this Gear Gatcha Cheat is only Cheating Themselves.

Also the Massive difference in Time Vs Score would show up I would say anyway.

Good idea, I might have to do the same once I start getting back in the groove.

I love on the video how you do a pristine run, and then within about 3 seconds of the computer taking over, it's rammed a car and stuck you on the grass...! Self driving car technology from 1986

I believe Ferrari did permit Tesla to use a one off convertible Testarossa in some very early experiments. In fact it still holds the record for longest journey by an autonomous vehicle. 35 foot into a palm tree. Back to the drawing board Elon.

Brilliant score and time, well done

I'll need to get some serious time on my machine to get close to that run. This must be one of the fastest times and highest scores that's been recorded, surely?

This is John Beresford at Arcade Club on a DLX without any need to Cheat in any way.

Jeez! I thought I was quite good at OutRun and assumed scores like that were done with the gear exploit. Not sure my best score off hand but nowhere near that.

I think anyone using this Gear Gatcha Cheat is only Cheating Themselves.

I agree, I've seen videos of people doing it and it just doesn't look fun to me. I've no desire to even try it.
