Nascar seems to have a few intermittent issues. The main one being the garage. It was not always raising. My tech buddy came by and this machine is newer than anything he has worked on from his days as an arcade tech 20+ years ago.
We swapped out the switch on the side of the mech that was...
If you had 2 of the same machine side by side one with a repro pf and one original in tje same condition...
Original #s matching all the way for more value.
I am currently having a few intermittent switch issues anx am doing musy best to play the heck out of nascar until my tech buddy comes by in a few weeks to replace any issues outstanding. I also put in a parts order for any of the issues raised on the operator alerts.
Can't be bad to have a few...
I met up with Tim (fiftyquid) at Starburst. We did the old vehicle transfer
Gor the machine up and running immediately.
Lots of fun. I just have to tweak the leg levelling for the carpet it's on to get the test car to drop the ball to the left flipper 100% by adjusting the rear legs. Front are...
I am new to this colour dmd concept. Does the hardware remain the same amd the software proms make it comparable to different machines?
If that is so my guess is my checkpoint will never be a release as the dmd size is so different to a standard sized one.
They should have a soon to come to...
Anyone have a look at that Alien Poker in Cambridge? (kijijii)
Kist wondering what sort of condition it is in for $1000
I have not as of yet recieved a reply or pics
I was at work and my wife claims she couldn't figure out how to bid...
Anyhow, I have yet to get an issue free machine from that auction.
But heck now that the pricing bar has been set so low...
Looking for a Nascar (or variant) for my current auto themed pin collection. (top priority) My wife...
When I originally picked the machine up it has DMD problems that were easy to fix a blown capacitor (I believe) my tech guy didn't have the right one at the time so we cabbaged together a few to get up to the required voltage. I am thinking of starting there first (as I have the right parts now...
Seems my Checkpoint is having a weird DMD issue.
I usually play 3 players and have been having some sporadic issues with the DMD. Sometimes it works just fine. Other times it will only show the player 1 and 3 scores, sometimes it will go blank during the player 2 play just to work again on...
I wouldn't mind selling after June 1. Even better would be to swap it for something I want more with the old +/- cash to make it happen.
I gotta admit it sure is a step up from High Speed.
Still a few things I would like to make it better like get a nicer (undamaged ramp), also considering...
Unfortunately my phone didn't have the juice (and I was at work) to check any of the results.
I was wondering what the Checkpoint ended up going for.
It was $1000 before I left for my overtime shift at 10am.
I still don't plan on selling mine yet but it's always good to keep up on what the...
I am still on the hunt for an undamaged Checkpoint ramp.
If you have one or are planning on attending Allentown I am willing to pay $200 Cdn for a good ramp.
At least I can watch the P&C auction to see what a non-working Checkpoint is going for soon enough...
Thanks,
Brad
I was a bust as far as I was concerned. I will not be attending in the future as this show just seems to find a way to suck more every year. I have not seen that many non-working pins since seeing the basement of ToPEC...
I don't go there to play in the tourney. As my wife will want to come along I am sure that she will only last 2-3 hours before wanting to leave. I think we only played 20 machines last year. I circle around looking for Alien Poker first and then settle in for a few games on some of the more...
I can say I am currently in this year.
I have been to larger shows with more vendors and machines but this show is the closest.
Thought I best start a thread so those who are not or cannot go can post what they may be looking for.
I am not opposed to collecting a few prices and phone numbers...
Plus don't forget all the fun of movement/shipping.
Many a time a pin has worked only to be torn down, moved and set up just to have some sort of hiccup with working correctly.
Well my board is all fixed up and installed.
Now the real fun begins as there is still a short somewhere in the playfield.
As the board repair had my tech bud putting in a bunch of sockets we just 'pulled' certain ones and started up to try to localize where the short may be happening. Looks...
