In motorsport the pole position is the position at the inside of the front row at the start of a racing event. This position is typically given to the vehicle and driver with the best qualifying time in the trials before the race (the leader in the starting grid). This number-one qualifying driver is referred to as the pole sitter.
Grid position is typically determined by a qualifying session prior to the race, where race participants compete to ascend to the number 1 grid slot, the driver, pilot, or rider having recorded fastest qualification time awarded the advantage of the number 1 grid slot (i.e. pole-position) ahead of all other vehicles for the start of the race.
Historically, the fastest qualifier was not necessarily the designated pole-sitter. Different sanctioning bodies in motor sport employ different qualifying formats in designating who starts from pole position. Often, a starting grid is derived either by current rank in the championship, or based on finishing position of a previous race. In particularly important events where multiple qualification attempts spanned several days, the qualification result was segmented or staggered, by which session a driver qualified, or by which particular day a driver set his qualification time, only drivers having qualified on the initial day eligible for pole position. In a phenomena known as race rigging, where race promoters or sanctioning bodies invert their starting grid for the purpose of entertainment value (e.g., pack racing; to artificially stimulate passing), the slowest qualifier would be designated as pole-sitter.
I was racing hard to the corner next to pits and other driver had the inside. Well, we hit and I hit wall hard @ 6:20 and then Slammed by other driver as well. All fun in racing but I felt it later that night. I have another shot of wreck from my Hero2 pointed backwards... I'll be posting that later.
An accident-free run through the complete circuit of five laps on the Namco Speedway course in the Pole Position game (Namco 5-in-1 TV game version) -- with snow-capped Mount Fuji in the background. Approach is imprinted in memory from all of the time (and quarters) wasted mastering the actual arcade game 25 years ago: Maintain full throttle around the entire course, stay on the track for all passing (use the middle of the track to pass between cars), get to and try to stay at top speed (195 mph) for as much of the course as possible, downshift from "HI" gear to "LO" gear for braking when necessary (e.g. in the big hairpin turn) -- and (of course) don't crash into anything. Score was 58250 points (my personal best/top score is 58450 points). Wife and daughters were not as impressed with...
Pole Position ran for 13 episodes on CBS in 1984 as part of their Saturday morning children's programming line-up, and later returned in reruns for a few months in 1986, followed by a run on The Family Channel (now ABC Family) in the late 80s/early 90s. It was also shown in the UK during the 1980s in the CBBC strand and repeated in the early 1990s on Saturday mornings as part of Going Live on BBC1. The show featured three young sibling crime fighters, two of whom were stunt drivers and part of a secret government operation under the guise of the "Pole Position Stunt Show" that was run by their uncle. The youths inherited the role after their parents died in an unfortunate car accident. The team is equipped with two high-tech talking vehicles named "Roadie", and "Wheels". The vehicles fea...
Pole Position agent, Greg Dumont, poses as a double agent to lure Wheels and Roadie to Alex Vance, a man out to destroy the computer system of Pole Position by using the memory bank of Wheels and Roadie. Zachary patches into Vance's computer and informs him of the double cross and explains it was a plan to get Wheels and Roadie into Vance's computer in order to destroy that computer system. The computer blows up, but they get out in the nick of time.
A race/driving game using a color raster-scan video display. The game action takes place at Fuji Speedway in Japan. The country around the speedway consists of green meadows, hills, and snow-capped Mt. Fuji. This was the world's first 16-bit arcade game as well as video game powered by a 16-bit processor. Namco was the first company to accomplish this. Pole Position was the first driving/racing game to be based on a real circuit Note: The infinite time cheat was used since the time for the middle of the race is too short. The atari version is slightly different than the Namco originally which begins at 6:23.
An odd message left by Joe Curry, the engineer of Roadie and Wheels, sends Tess and Dan to the scene of a telephone booth where they find a teddy bear leading them to Curry's daughter Suzy. Curry has developed a new fuel injector that saves eighty percent more gasoline for a company but the side effects release dangerous pollutants and he won't give them the model. Tess and Dan rescue Curry. The bad guys go to kidnap Suzy who is locked in the house with Daisy, but the girls capture the crooks and are safe. The model was hidden in the bear all along.

The driver earns points for passing cars, driving on the track, and finishing the race with time remaining. The time remaining ...
Antigo desenho que passava no SBT. Pole Position é uma série animada de televisão franco-americana criada pelo produtor francês Jean Chalopin e produzida pela DiC Entertainment em 1984. Os irmãos Tess, Dan e Daysi procuram pelo pai desaparecido após uma explosão durante uma corrida. Entre suas apresentações como dublês e disputas nas pistas, os três irmãos combatem o crime trabalhando para uma organização secreta chamada Pole Position. Para ajudá-los, contam com dois veículos de alta tecnologia contendo computadores falantes chamados de "Roadie" e "Wheels".
Primeiro episódio da tão saudosa série de desenho animado Pole Position. Para relembrar o passado, época que tinha desenhos bons na tv.

Antigo desenho que passava no SBT. No desenho, os irmãos Dan, Tess e Daisy Darret são três adolescentes que estão em busca do seu pai desaparecido após uma explosão durante uma corrida. Apesar desse infeliz incidente, os jovens continuaram os negócios da família, o "Show de Acrobacias Pole Position", trabalhando em conjunto com os carros Wheels e Rodão. Em suas aventuras os irmãos contavam com a ajuda de um bichinho de estimação meio gato, meio macaco chamado Faísca (Kuma, no original). Cada carro tinha uma Unidade de Inteligência Artificial. O computador do Mustang vermelho era chamado de Wheels, e o carro azul de Dan chamava-se Rodão. Wheels tinha a estranha mania de se achar velho demais para combater o crime, enquanto Rodão parecia passar a maior parte do seu tempo livrando Dan das ...

They're stickin it to us now that we're almost there
But it's our job to keep the lies out of the breathing air
Are we in a position to pull an insurection
When it's our job to keep
Corruption from total eruption
Off the track
Short on time
Human race
Fall behind
The Great Escape
The Vast Empire
The fields of mines
The cold barbed wire
We're faling out and withering away
Should we try and make a fairweather day
When the finish line is beyond far away
They're stickin it to us now that we're almost there
We'll never make it through the tear gass and the smoke filled air
They're killing everyone nameless and poor
Outside I struggle to survive
It's a fucking war
We're dying off and sinking away
Far beneath the wings of the Enola Gay
