Synopsis

High Speed is a pinball game designed by Steve Ritchie, with software by Larry DeMar and art by Mark Sprenger (playfield) and Python Anghelo (backglass). It is based on Ritchie's real-life police chase inside a 1979 Porsche 928. He was finally caught in Lodi, California on Interstate 5 and accused of speeding at 146 miles per hour (235 km/h). The game itself plays as a high-speed police chase between the player (in his cherry-red Lamborghini) and the long arm of the law. The player must first advance a set of traffic lights from green to yellow to red; after he runs the red light, the police will immediately follow. If the player escapes, he can start three-ball multiball for a chase at breakneck speeds, complete with flashing lights and siren.
A sequel was released 1992 called The Getaway: High Speed II.
