Taken in part ex from a good friend I have had this pin through my hands on at least 4 occasions over the past 8 years.
One of my favourite 90s games from my favourite designer Steve Ritchie and although quite simple from a code standpoint it’s fast and furious as a car genre should be.
This actual pin has never missed a beat in all the time it has been in and around my circle of friends and has acquired a few nice upgrades to make it stand out from the crowd.
The good
Super nice Diamond Plate playfield with none of the wear usually found on them in and around the lenses with no sunken or lifted ones either. Find me a nicer original and I’d be amazed.
20+ piece of my own fluorescent protectors which truly take this pin to another level.
The usual broken or missing plastic at the Center targets is present, correct and protected.
New shiny Turbo cover.
LEDs throughout inc the backbox.
Full new ribbon set between boards fitted a couple years ago along with a new rubber set.
Display super bright and sharp with no noticeable burn.
The not so great
Cabinet faded with few scuffs / scratches here and there. But TBF HS2 was never the best art anyway and wouldn’t be noticeable in a lineup.
Legs not original but up to the job and have protectors fitted which I’ll include.
I have to remove the mirror blades as they were not included in the part ex and need to be returned to the last owner for his replacement pin.
However if potential buyer pays asking I will leave them on and I’ll buy a new set for him along with a new shiney piece of glass as the one included is not great.
The mirror blades do look great on this pin giving depth and more bling to the pin especially with my protectors.
A little more effort with a mini shop and a with a nice red powder coat and this will be an absolute stunner.
