Genre: Racing

This short article is in need of work. You can help Sega Retro by adding to it.


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 Sega AM3 in 1996. It is similar to Sega Rally Championship in design, but uses touring cars instead of rally cars. Unlike Sega Rally Championship, Sega Touring Car Championship has never seen a sequel, and it considered a far less successful game for a variety of reasons.

Sega Touring Car Championship offers three "rounds" (plus a qualifying lap), in which the player competes against seven other cars for first place. Selectable cars include an AMG Mercedes C-Class, Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti, Toyota Supra and Opel Calibra V6, all of which were used in the 1995 Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (of which this game is based on). The exception is the Toyota Supra, which competed in the Japanese Grand Touring Championship (now Super GT).

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.
