RE: omega race hig score save

The bookeeping section has a line for the 'alltime high score' for 1 credit, or 2 credits. I believe it also has a line for average score per game.. When the power is cycled, it seeds the alltime high score line with the generic one with the initials AE (same one shown in the manual)
