Hi everyone

I am trying to find the name of a fruit machine which I used to play around 6-7 years ago (although the machine may have been older than that).

It was a club machine based around Formula One or motor racing.

I remember the feature board having a race track with (I think) a pit lane and oil slicks...

I think it also had a sub-feature board, a bit like Millionaires Row on Cops 'n' Robbers.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Richard

Chequered Flag, by Global Games is the machine you're thinking of. Yes it can be emulated, but we don't have the ROMs as yet. I would, however, rate their arrival onto the scene as 'imminent'.

I happen to have a chequered flag machine currently not working- but gimme half an hour with a scorp2 board it will be-

Has this been on the cards for a while? Seems like my timing is almost too good! lol

It was a great machine, many an evening spent sat in front of it!

hmmmm, not in pipeline- roms will be somewhere here soon once i dump them
hopefully i can get you some piccys soon too- im hauling the remains of the machine back into my living room soon tonight so i can start some repairs.
btw, if anyone has a scorp2 mainboard i could do with one.

does that one use the add on sound card for better sound on the scorp 2? dont think either of the emulators have added that in yet

yep, it does- but youd still be able to get a mute layout for the min would you not?

and didnt the likes of cops and robbers club have add in sound?

[rchesterton]

That's the machine - although I think the one I played was predominantly blue, not red (is that possible?)

[MAGIK]

i think there were one or two variaints of the machine- could be they did it in blue......
just a guess mind

cops and robbers just had a sound chip on board the mpu so its easy to emulate.

keep up the good work
