Mad Bazooka (マッド・バズーカ) is a medium-scale attraction designed by Sega.

It is an indoor bumper car ride in which two teams of six players fire foam balls at vehicles on the opposing team to score points. Each car seats two people; one driver and one shooter. The driver collects colorful foam balls littering the floor of the arena by driving over them, while the shooter uses a pneumatic cannon mounted on the front of the vehicle to fire the balls – up to 8 per second at speeds of 80 mph - at targets on top of the other cars. Hitting the targets increases the team’s score, which is displayed on an LED screen inside the vehicle. At the end of the game, a winning team is determined.

Like many of Sega's medium-scale attractions, Mad Bazooka made its debut at Joypolis Yokohama before being installed in SegaWorld London and Sega World Sydney. Since all of these venues have since closed, no operating Mad Bazooka units are known to be currently in service.
