The Saturn version has what is known as "Global Net Events", which are triggered at various times of the year depending on the system's clock. Setting it to the 25th of December 1997 will trigger "winter holiday" mode, 13th of Februrary will trigger "hit and run mode" (in which you need to hit cones), and 1st of April will trigger "April Foul" mode, in which you drive in the opposite direction and have to avoid oncoming cars. | The Saturn version has what is known as "Global Net Events", which are triggered at various times of the year depending on the system's clock.

− | Unfortunately the Saturn conversion of ''Sega Touring Car Championship'' suffers from several technical issues, including a low 20FPS refresh rate, frequent glitches when rendering polygons (and shadows) and warped textures - issues that do not manifest in the older Saturn release of ''Sega Rally'' (or contemporary Sega racing games from the era including ''[[Manx TT Super Bike]]'', ''[[Daytona USA: Championship Circuit Edition]]'' and ''[[Sonic R]]'').

Sega Touring Car Championship (セガツーリングカーチャンピオンシップ) is a Sega Model 2C CRX arcade racing game developed by AM Annex in 1996. It is similar to Sega Rally Championship in design, but uses touring cars instead of rally cars.
Contents
Gameplay
Sega Touring Car Championship offers three "rounds" (plus a qualifying lap), in which the player competes against seven other cars for first place.
Cars
Sega Touring Car Championship features, by default, four touring cars, three used in the 1995 Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft and a Toyota from the Japanese Grand Touring Championship (now Super GT).

Toyota Supra |
The Toyota Supra is the token Japanese car, most likely included to please a Japanese audience, but also to make up the numbers - the DTM of 1995 only featured three cars. The Supra is sponsored primarily by Castrol, who also sponsored the Toyota Celica CT-Four in Sega Rally. | |

History
Touring Car was less successful than Rally and has never seen a sequel (although what exactly constitutes a "sequel" among the long string of Sega arcade racers is unclear). It is believed that the steeper difficulty curve contributed to Touring Car's poor performance, though it did receive Sega Saturn and Windows ports (unlike Indy 500). Sega Logistics Service announced it would end service on the arcade machines on March 31, 2017.[16][17]
Versions
Home ports to the Sega Saturn and Windows PC were handled by AM Annex, and were released in 1997 and 1998 respectively. These versions include cars from the 1996 International Touring Car Championship plus more interestingly, the Toyota Celica CT-Four and Lancia Delta HF Integrale from Sega Rally. There are also hidden courses in this version, and contains features such as split-screen multiplayer.
The Saturn version has what is known as "Global Net Events", which are triggered at various times of the year depending on the system's clock. Setting it to the 25th of December 1997 will trigger "winter holiday" mode, 13th of Februrary will trigger "hit and run mode" (in which you need to hit cones), and 1st of April will trigger "April Foul" mode, in which you drive in the opposite direction and have to avoid oncoming cars.
Unfortunately the Saturn conversion of Sega Touring Car Championship suffers from several technical issues, including a low 20FPS refresh rate, frequent glitches when rendering polygons (and shadows) and warped textures - issues that do not manifest in the older Saturn release of Sega Rally (or contemporary Sega racing games from the era including Manx TT Super Bike, Daytona USA: Championship Circuit Edition and Sonic R). An attempt at mimicking "realistic" physics also leads to cars being comparatively difficult to handle - something exacerbated by the use of the standard Control Pad as opposed to a 3D Control Pad or Arcade Racer.
