What would you guys want in a Racing Cab FE?

SegaOutrun:
I like my hyperspin setup. it was a pain but i like the themes, vids, logo and selection wheel. But if i had a racing only cabinet, a track selection theme like twistedsymphony mentioned seems pretty cool. Scroll thru the games as if they were tracks, with the highlighted one playing a video.


Howard_Casto:
Good ideas all around.  I'll keep them in mind.

I like the pic you posted Outrun, but then again I see a lot of wasted space.  It'd be nice to be able to show more games on the screen at once, just for quicker navigation.  I think in my little test program I did 5 games on screen at once. 

I was thinking more like a tight row of snaps across the bottom, a logo centered at the top and a video of the currently selected game as the background.

baritonomarchetto:
Maybe a feature that could be added later, but the auto run of the latest played game on startup is a feature i would like to see in a FE, especially for driving games. Not sure about you, but i generally have "phases" (outrun phase, daytona phase and so on) during which i play one game only (es. when a racing competition pops up  ;))

twistedsymphony:
For the layout of the game selection screen something like what Hydro Thunder uses makes the most sense to me:


You have the game logos around the parameter of the screen then the currently selected game could not only be highlighted but also have it's title in the center along with a video.

hiljak:
The Daytona track selection style theme/setup would be awesome for my needs!!

@twistedsymphony - Did you convert a San Fran Rush cab?  If so, are there photos?  I have a Rush cab that I'm thinking of converting but I'm still kicking around the idea.  From what I've found lurking around here, it seems like interfacing the existing FFB isn't practical so I was thinking of may trying to fit a G27 wheel into the cab.  Any inspiration I can get from other projects would be golden tho.
