# Sega Rally Championship: lifting Model 2A i960 code to a host runtime

> The Sega Rally Championship project compiles lifted i960 code from the Model 2A arcade game into a host executable. It pairs game and library C with a portable Model 2 runtime, disassembly artifacts and ROM extraction scripts. On first run, the host extracts the required data from user-supplied board dumps and offers cold-boot and practice-start targets.
