Pole Position

Pole Position, manufactured by Segasa d.b.a. Sonic of Spain in 1987, is a solid-state electronic four-player pinball machine from a manufacturer whose pinball output remains relatively obscure outside Spain. Segasa (later trading as Sonic) was a Spanish company closely associated with Sega -- sharing personnel and licensing arrangements over the years -- but operated as its own entity producing coin-operated machines for the European market.

Gameplay details and ruleset specifics for Pole Position are scarce in the historical record. As a late-1980s solid-state machine, it would have featured the flippers, bumpers, and electronic scoring typical of the era, though specific layout information is not documented.

As one of Segasa/Sonic's pinball releases, Pole Position remains a lesser-documented piece of pinball history, of particular interest to collectors seeking European-made machines from manufacturers outside the mainstream US/European giants.
