The pizzas are great and so are the guys who run the place....they are both very good friends of mine.
I'll be at the comp on Saturday night , and as far as i've been told the machines can be of any age to get you into the rankings.....they don't need to be the latest models.
There are several up and coming approved tournaments in the near future....you can check the calender here..http://www.ifpapinball.com/calendar.php
Paul "Rollerball"  is hosting another one in a few weeks time which i'd also like to get to if i can find the time.
