Suzuka 8 Hours (full title: Coca-Cola Suzuka 8 Hours), is a racing arcade game, that was released by Namco in 1992; it runs on Namco System 2 hardware, and was the first game to be sponsored by the Coca-Cola Corporation. The gameplay is similar to that of both Final Lap games (and Four Trax), only with motorcycles instead of racing cars and quad bikes - and a sequel named Suzuka 8 Hours 2 was released in the following year (but only in Japan). It featured three additional tracks in addition to the Suzuka Circuit; the "Green Hill Circuit" (which is not set in that first Zone of Sonic the Hedgehog), the "Bayside Raceway", and the "Devil's Canyon Circuit". As with both Final Lap titles and Four Trax, there will also be CPU-controlled bikes (and billboards) to watch out for as you race around the track.
