I'm trying to remember this and anyone who helps a big thanks.

The arcade game was released by Atari (I'm pretty sure) and it was a futuristic racing game similer to Playstation's Wipeout.

Its not Roadblasters where you pick up little green and red balls.

This was usually a game that had a built in racing seat if I remember and had "prototype" polygon graphics. Almost 3D-like. I remember jumping ramps a lot and flying over "arrows" that boosted your speed.

I think it came out around 1987 or 88'
Thanks again.

Finally!

Thanks, been wanting to try it on MAME for a looong time but could not remember the damn name!

I just fed the same info you gave into Mame.dk (Atari, racing, 88 ) and it came right up. I'd imagine that the same thing could be done at KLOV, but I figured that I'd check for emulation first.

That's STUN Runner. A great game that came out in 1989. I never beat it, but I had alot of fun trying. Grab yourself a copy of MAME, and find the ROM. It's a pain in the ass playing on a keyboard, but it's all yours.

There's a pretty decent version of it for the Atari Lynx as well.
