I remember reading about that contest awhile back.  Was the 3 minute track I think and she had said Han bodied her completely IIRC.   Is there any record of what Han's score was?

Han's score in the finals of the Women's division was 53,220, for which she won $4000.

Eric Ginner's score in the Open final was 52,341, for which he won $12000.

Perhaps Ms. Han should have entered the Open division...

Those are amazing scores and even today would stand at 3rd place.  (record is 59k)

Best I was able to do in MAME about ten years ago was 53,743.

Damn.  Go Han!  Nice score yourself as well John.  I think  typically mentions 3m centipede and DBH's score as his favorite or among his favorite CAG records.  Being only like a 300kish player I don't know enough about the game or the track to make such statements but I trust that whatever DBH does on Centipede is likely miraculous.

Interesting read linked there, timhett.  Complete with a quote from Julie:

I'm the girl that Ok Soo Han beat to win the women's division.
I won $2000 & my check bounced too, but Atari sent me a replacement check & all ended well.
This was also the cover story for Time Magazine's December 1981 issue.
I still have a copy plus my trophy & a tee shirt.
