Sega Rally Special Stage (セガラリースペシャルステージ) was a medium scale attraction based on Sega Rally Championship that was located at Shinjuku Joypolis in the late 1990s.
Sega Rally Special Stage plays much like the regular Sega Rally, with one key difference; players rode inside a full-sized Toyota Celica GT-Four acting as a motion simulator, looking out of the windscreen at a giant projected image of the game.
The details of Special Stage are currently unclear, though it is assumed that non-first person camera options and the ability to drive as either of the two Lancia cars were removed. Likewise the cabinet set-up suggests no multiplayer options were available.
It is not thought Sega Rally Special Stage ever appeared outside of Shinjuku Joypolis, however the technology used in it would go on to inspire Sega Touring Car Championship Special in 1997, as well as its own successor Initial D Arcade Stage 4 Limited in 2007.
