Hi.
I'm not a new member here, but i've never post on this great community (but see your great roadtrips ;D).
I come from Italy and usually i collect sega only stuff (racing machine games in particular).....but in the last few months i start another idea....to collect old dedicated too...(at least the ones i play when i were young).
In the meantime i start with a "classic".....power drift...
In my wanted list there is:
Tehkan World Cup coctail
Outrun upright or deluxe
Hyper Olympics upright or coctail
Super Hang On upright or deluxe (just found an upright)
Enduro Racer upright
and there are many others i really want, but the big problem (apart the money obviously ;D) is the space....
Now i "stole" half of my father in law warehouse (25mq) for my hobby....and i'm trying to stole the remaing half too. ;D
Here is what i currently have:
Sega F-Zero AX Deluxe motion cabinet
Sega Rally Twin (for my the best arcade racing ever made)
Sega Rally 2 mono (used to play scud race too)
Sega Initial D sitdown (all restored)
Sega Initial D sitdown (converted to outrun 2 machine)
Sega New Net City
Sega Touring Car sitdown (i'll convert this to a "universal" racing machine)
Sega Power Drift upright (to be renewed, but "new parts" already found)
Sega Super Hang On upright (just won on ebay)
Data East Tales From The Crypt pinball (renewed)
Garlando Maracana foosball (bought it new a month ago)
That's all for now....
Pics to follow.
;D

That's a cool racing collection you got, fill the rest with classics and you got a top notch gameroom :)
-
Impressive list. I had a Power Drift upright for some time and really enjoyed it. Regret that I had to sell it but sometimes you have to set your priorities.
Welcome here !

Thank you for your nice words...
I just forgot to add the only one lives in my home...
A taito Egret3 cabinet.
Me too like power drift....
I just hope i'm able to perform the wood restoration on this, caused by some water damage.... :evil:
I see all your great restorations and i really hope to be able to do at least a decent job because this cab deserve it.
I already found a "new"control panel and new side arts (new old stock, someone could tell me how to "scan" them??).
Now i've to repair the mtc-9000 chassis (better to find another one i think..) and just see what happen... ;D
Below some pics....

Really cool collection. and welcome here
i love all sega racers too :p
I still need to restore my 2 power drift cabs, i have 2 different model, the black european model (which come from andre) and a grey one (seems american version). If you can scan your side art, that'd be appreciate :)

I'll try to do that since seems that those side arts aren't available anywhere on the network.
Mine is the black version, but the arts coming from US.
Hope they go fine together.

This is the first time i see a power drift like this?
Maybe it's a conversion??
-
Nice collection! :)
Can you tell more about the Initial D that was converted to Outrun 2? How did you do it?

Thank you. ;)
Converting initial d into outrun 2 is really simple.
You just need a chihiro motherboard with outrun2 gdrom.
Than you need a model 3 dashboard (coming from scud race/sega rally2/daytona2) and you've just to change the initial d dashboard with this one.
All is plug&play.

I don't know , but the pcb as an extra "daughter board" compare to the classic "powerdrift" we see arround

Could you post some pics of it?
You can see sega logo on this pcb??
Interesting finding here. ;)

Welcome here glstar :D
Sega racers are the best, for sure. I also have a Super Hang-on upright: one of those underestimated cabinets that addicts you after few plays and you cannot live without ;)

Obviously it was not working when i bought it, but it has the non-suicide PCB in it. Where did you buy yours? Is it working?

Welcome to the 'party', Glstar ;)

Welcome to the 'party', Glstar ;)
Thank you Bruno.
I forgot to tell that i already do 6-7 roadtrip.....
The longer was 1900km in 48 hours.
Me and a friend of mine go to a huge warehouse in north Italy to check some sega racers....and while we were on site, my friend have had the brilliant idea to get 10 twin cabinets (from sega rally 2 to planet harriers) but the seller was so kind to let us remove parts and pieces from other machines to have ours nearly perfect...
My F-Zero AX Deluxe and Sega Rally come from there.....

Hi!
Wow that really is a nice collection that you have there :) And I totally agree: Sega Rally is the best Arcade Racer around! I truly love this game and some day I will also own the cab shown here: http://www.thebasementarcade.com/roadtrips15.htm (http://www.thebasementarcade.com/roadtrips15.htm) for sure :) I played it hours and hours on the saturn.
Anyway: have fun here! :)
