Indy 500 software question

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

Just curious if anyone knows........ On Indy 500, sometimes when you
hit your second lock to start normal 3 ball multi-ball, a ball will
launch right away giving you an opportunity to try and nail a couple
jackpots even before the other 2 balls are spit out of the turbo.
Normally the 2 balls are launched out of the turbo and then then your
3rd ball is launched. The early launched ball seems to happen
randomly.... is this a bug in the software or is there a way to make to
guarantee the early ball launch by doing something specific in the
game?? I have seen this strange thing happen on 4 different Indy 500
machines, and I heard its a software thing.

I have also noticed that during triple playfield scoring, if you start
the speedway called caution "video mode" you are awarded lots of laps.
.... like 15 or 25 maybe....... Does anyone know how many laps this
gives you?

Hehe hehehe you are right. Too many Indy Questions to answer.
The "Wanker" question is my favorite.. lol Your questions answered my
questions.
how you doing KME?

Here are some things I have found that you might consider adding to
your list:

Why does it sometimes say "that's one" when you have just locked your
second ball in the turbo?

Why do the "buy-in" scores sometimes show up under the normal scores?

Why is there no big reward for getting that 4th lock that only the top
drivers get?

Why do the P-I-T lanes re-set after a multiballs so that if you have
collected 2 letters during multiball.... after multiball you now have
no letters collected for yot pit stop?

Is this with using v1.1 ROMs?

I originally whined about it here:

and a little more here:

My opinion of I500 has changed a lot over the last almost-exactly 10
years (I don't particularly care for it at all at this point), but
those complaints about advancing positions remain valid I feel.
