I've got a 3 player Super Sprint.
http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=S&game_id=99...
Great fun and easy for anyone to play. Goes good with any pinball but would
be really great with High Speed and/or Getaway or any other "car race"
theams. This game can be easily found and is not too expensive. It is a
dedicated cabinet and it would be nicer if it could be switched to some
other overhead racing games, but this is the best game per square foot of
gameroom space that I have found.

In terms of fixability - the older games (i.e. Monaco GP, Turbo, the
original Sprint, Night Driver) are easier to fix if something goes
wrong (assuming you have the parts too). Games like Outrun and Power
Drift are awesome, but if the boards go bunk they are really hard to
work on (gotta love those dual layered PCB's - and schematics are
pretty much impossible to find). But what it really boils down to is
do you want something newer or older? Based on your collection it
would seem something newer would go with your current setup. Maybe go
for a Spy Hunter or Pole Position - there seems to be lots of those out
there so parts should be easier to find than on the older games.

>I am looking to buy a upright video game car racing

Benson started remaking Atari rush2049 in a standup. I have the sitdown
and LOVE it.You lose the clutch in the standup and they are still
fairly new (expensive).

outrun is a good game
super sprint is a classic.
I like ivan stewart off road (almost like toy cars)
Sitdown daytona and 2049 are fantastic, but large.

I have a pair of linked Rush 2049 and a Dangerous Curves, (sit down Ducatti
vs Ferrarri's). Love my driving games.

You've got a good idea there, Terry.

I've got a sit down Cruisin USA. I've thought about selling it to make
room for another pin but we have too much fun with it.

Even though they aren't stand ups - I have a linked pair of Daytona's (a
twin) and a pair of SF Rush the Rock Alcatraz Edition and I love them both.

There are actually factory upright versions of Daytona USA. A lot of
people like that game.

Selling shadow pinball to buy vid game? For shame!

Kirb

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

I'm a vid collector, and driving games are an interesting breed....one
of the very few vid areas where the current games are better than the
classics.

Pole Position is probably the most golden classic of that lot. I have
one, and it gets boring quickly, though. The boardset also isn't
extremely reliable. Lots of silver-area games like Night Driver,
Turbo, etc. Out Run is a great game from the end of the golden classic
era, and has the cool shaking steering wheel. A real neat one.

But, there's a ton of newer drivers that are even better (albeit not
classics), that can be found pretty reasonably:

Hard Drivin'
Off Road
Rush
Etc, etc.

Because drivers keep getting better and better, prices on non-new ones
are very reasonable. A very nice Pole Position is $300-$500 on
average. Out Run seems to go for $300-$600, etc. Certainly nowhere
near as expensive as Galaga's and MsPac's tend to be.
