Which front end for a driving cab?

The whole point is to use the layout editor to make a layout that is one of a kind.
It's just stuff stuck on top of a static picture you created in photoshop or elsewhere.
Here is the last driving themed one I made (the only thing that changes is the video/snap, and the gamelist name above it...of course the gamelist scrolls):
I've always wanted to try a Hyperspin setup similar to this, but can't imagine having the time anytime soon.
(would definitely get rid of the wheel popping up and down and the flashing press start signs)

I really like the way that frontend looks! nice and simple. Would love to see the cabinet that goes along with it.

lol, well I destroyed my old cab (linked in my sig). The FE never looked quite right on the CRT because the red text was hard to read on it.
The new cab which is in limbo until I finish remodeling the house I just bought will be widescreen LCD (hopefully triple), so it won't work on that either.

I think when you go triple screen it stops being an arcade and starts being a simpit. ;)
Unless you get that Ferrari game working in triple screen mode. ;D

I have a full driving hyperspin setup if you want me to zip and mega it, you will only have to change the .exe mapping and add the roms. Is basically a Model 1, 2 and 3 plus demul and mame however mame is only the top 20 cabinet drivers.

Hi,
Signed up to jump on this thread too.
I have spent the best part of a week pulling hair out over how to set up my new stand up driving cab.
Hyperspin was pretty confusing and labour intensive about 3 years ago when I left it.
Going back there last week is a real eye opener. It's now a massive unwieldy multi application with infinite hurdles :( I feel bad for anyone that tries to approach that thing from scratch today.
I found 'Checkered Flag' and it seems nice but a little limited. For the moment I am using an old P4 2ghz so I don't need too many bells and whistles.
Please let me take a look at this chopped down version if you share it vandale.
what are others using for their Driving cab front ends?
