I have the two player sitdown Road Riot 4WD and no the contols only go left/right. So you can stop drooling over the one for sale on eBay. :)

Your right...I was just curious why the one on Ebay was going for such a low price which also included the PCB and manual.

Anyway....I got a better deal on a Star Wars yoke only two days ago.   I went to an arcade shop and asked whether they had any old used stuff I could look through.   The man was extremely nice and showed me tons of crap to look through.   Spending about 1 hour looking through boxes filled with dust, I saw it.....the handle of a yoke....a Star Wars yoke at that.    I asked the guy how much he would want for something like this and he told me "I would never use that" and sold it to me for $5.

Actually, I got the Star Wars yoke, two gas pedals, one gas/brake pedal assembly, a double steering wheel driving assembly, two heavy duty metal joysticks with triggers, some spare buttons, 360degree joystick all for ....$30.

PS:  I will be going back soon to look through other boxes.... :>)
