Lotus 2 - "Yee Haa"

Did you know you get a "Yee Haa" sound when you drive under a truck in the Motorway Stage?

Yes. One guy used to shout the "Yea Haa" the same way as in the game, to attract girls in the crowds, and possibly signalling that he plays the game.

Yes. Even in the old times when I didn't play the game that much (as much as in EAB/Lemon compos since then) I was hoping this thread would have revealed some secret source for the sample or something like that

People who wouldn't know that:

- playing the game legit and just never getting to that late stage
- or playing with the sound off
- or not knowing how to have any fun at all

because otherwise of course the first thing you do is drive under the carriage and thus hear the sound You just HAVE to.

Yes, 34 ears ago... also i believe with an extra 512 memory there is speech that announces- "Checkpoint". Final Fight Amiga also benefits from extra memory. Was it extra speech or that tune "lost in time that appears.

I'd be doing an awful lot more than "Yee Haa" going under an 18-wheeler at 108mph..

I'm sure my brother in law took me on with him using his Megadrive pad and he could yeehaw at will. I knew he did it on his sega version but was surprised when he did it on the Amiga.
