Rally-X is one tough game. Is anyone any good at it? I am usually lucky to get to the first intermission stage. I just got to stage 4 (stage 5 if you count the intermissions) on MAME for a whopping 38K points.

Anyone good at this game? Anyone ever get to a second intermission? When does it come in? Any good youtube videos of someone playing well? Even if it's on MAME, I'd like to see it.
 
What setting are you playing at? In MAME (set to easy, which I think is default), I just got to round 8 (including intermissions, 8 is after the 2nd one). Ended up with about 75K. Interestingly, I made it thru all 3 of the 2nd set of mazes without dying (first 2 deaths were on the 1st set of mazes, other 2 were on the 3rd maze)
 
LOL! I guess the fact I didn't know there were intermissions says how bad and how much I play that game... :( I've tried over the years to ike it, but it just hasn't ever grown on me.

I love Rally-X! It's really one of those under-appreciated games. I agree that it is tough as nails.... I think I can make it to the 5th stage if I'm lucky.
 
I've gotten 100-110k before, I'd like to have access to a machine to try and go for 200k on it one day but I don't think I want to own it. I like the game though but yes very frustrating.
 
I've only played it in MAME (using the arrow keys) - and usually get to level 9 before getting killed off. I haven't been able to memorize that maze yet, so I haven't figured out the escape routes.

I picked up a Rally-X board a while back (untested), and will eventually swap it into a cab to try it with the joystick.

As for difficulty setting, I don't know. Usually starts level 1 with 3 cars...
