F1 Exhaust Note (Ｆ１エグゾーストノート) is an arcade Formula 1 racing game developed by Sega R&D 8 for Sega System 32 arcade hardware. It does not have a FIA license, so all the cars and tracks were invented by Sega R&D 8.

The game was distributed as twin cabinets, and was the first arcade game ever to have a special attract screen taking up both monitors show up when neither side of the cabinet was being used.

History

Development

The game was directed by Satoshi Mifune, and assistant programmer on Space Harrier, OutRun and After Burner. The game was greenlit after the surprise success of the last game he directed, GP Rider.

Legacy

F1 Exhaust Note was bettered by F1 Super Lap, released for the same hardware in 1993. It has never seen a home console release.

The multiplayer theme titled "BGM A" is heard when inputting the name "EXN" in the high score table of Daytona USA.
