Very fun game, I did contemplate getting one of these a few years back as I love motor sport, never did though, congrats on securing a rare sample, well done.

Oscar from Melbourne had one of these in one of his containers and it looked like it just came out of the box it was delivered in.

When i saw the photos (of the one above, and of Oscars) I thought what a cool looking pinball.

Not a large production run either from memory. Great pin for anyone into cars n sports car pinnys. Well done on a great pickup !  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

I really enjoyed playing this machine when i had one - it had a super nice playfield -  i removed the mylar and it was pretty much brand spankers!

Very fast game and quite hard which i enjoyed - mine like most had fair bit of cab fade

Thanks guys.

I500 is also alot deeper in rules than i first thought  ^^^

No Fear has got me up to speed to play I500  %$%  These two pins are IMO faster than Getaway HS2   !^!

I will be giving I500 & NF a strip down & clean in the next month,will post pic's on how they come up

Just got news that planetary pinball will be running full plastic sets and cabinet decals for this game. Loooong overdue as you can see from all the badly faded cabinets out there. I'm really looking forward to restoring mine, never played one before.
Thanx

Nice I500 right there, Looking to get one of these myself if I can locate one.
Reminds me of a sample Jackbot I had a few years ago that had a very low serial number & proto rom
