This cocktail got so much character.
Its a must for every collection actually. Something you never forget once you saw it.
The game is great of course and a piece of history.

If I would´nt love huge cabinets I would be after that version for sure!
I have a dream....that one day....all members of forum are the same....no matter how long ago they have joined, how many games they own or how many posts they wrote ;)

So I understand the player's car is missing....do I dare to ask......did you start a game ?

Not sure if the LED's indicate that a game is running....

Yes, we started a game. The screenshot was actually taken while I was 'playing'. I could use the gear shifter and the throttle, both worked. You can't see or steer the car. There are parts f the track in the dark. You see the light cone but you cannot control it, it doesn't move while turning the wheel. Of course, this could also mean, that the wheel is not working properly.

Okiedokie......


Mmmm, found this tiny bit of info on Wikipedia:
"Images such as the cars and "game over" message are stored in small custom ROM chips."

Mmmm....maybe .....it's just one of those PROMs ?

Anyway, this is already much better than expected :):)
