F1 Exhaust Note is a two-player racing game released for arcades in 1991, modeled on Formula One racing. The game has a standard dual racing cabinet setup. Each player station has a 25-inch monitor, steering controls, shift controls, pedals, and a decorative seat. The sound originates from the back of the seat giving the player surround sound effect.[2] The game ran on the Sega System 32 arcade hardware.[3]
In Japan, Game Machine listed F1 Exhaust Note on their 1 January 1992 issue as being the second most-successful upright arcade unit of the month.[4] It went on to be the highest-grossing dedicated arcade cabinet of 1992 in Japan, and the year's second highest-grossing arcade title after Street Fighter II.[5] In the United States, the RePlay arcade charts listed F1 Exhaust Note as the top-grossing new video game from March to April 1992.[6][7]
In Play Meter magazine, Jim Overman gave the game a rating of 94% and a "gut feeling" score of 10 out of 10.[8]
