Rave Racer[a] is an arcade racing game that was released by Namco in 1995. It runs on Namco System 22 hardware,[3] and could be played by two people per cabinet for up to eight players total when up to four of them were linked together.[4] It is the third arcade title in the Ridge Racer series and the follow-up to Ridge Racer and Ridge Racer 2.

Compared to Ridge Racer 2, Rave Racer adds two new tracks as well as the ability to play the original two, various handling changes, force feedback steering, and improved car and racetrack graphics.[5] Like Ridge Racer 2, Rave Racer featured a new soundtrack. The new tracks contain various side roads, but some of them take more time than others to complete a full lap of the track.
