Latest Addition: Virtua Racing Twin
« on: October 23, 2005, 11:03:57 pm »
"CheffoJeffo" notified me of this Virtua Racing Twin on ebay that was 1 day auction.  So I won it for a good price and drove to Rochester to pick it up last weekend.  Brought it home and plugged it in and worked, partially.  But it worked better then my VR Standup...

With some assistance from WADE, I was able to get it working again.  Now the fun part... cleaning  all the dust and dirt after years of sitting in a warehouse.

Attached some pics of the unit when I brought it home and after phase 1 of disassembly.  Hopefully I can put all back together again and it works!!!

GGKoul,

   It is gonna be great once you finish fixing it up.  It is definitely in better condition than mine was when I got it, except for the steering wheels (but one of my still needed replaced).  Sweet price too, can't beat that!!

TTYL,
Wade
