I'd like to know what kind of controller you used?

I use the Quasimoto Quasicade controller from their self build cabinet from a few years ago, I don't know if they still produce this - basically it has an analogue stick, xbox 1 style but with slightly longer sticks - obviously not a patch on the original handlebar controller (which I gather was a canabalised Star Wars yoke) - but it does me well, and I'm pretty sure the 185645 on Easy Street is going to be VERY tough to beat, that was a perfect paper game, with max lives bonus, and a hell of a lot of "right in the mailbox" deliveries and breakage bonus.

I'm supposed to have a Star Wars yoke coming from RAM controls (having preordered a loooooong time ago, I seem to be the only one still waiting), so I may try something with that.

Off topic, but couldn't resist.
I finally know what "gob-shite" means
Below is a perfect example of that word in use:

Correct Malcolm, a tough score to beat. But managed to somewhow beat it, years later :D

Cheers BJ! Hope your doing well!

Middle Way WR here:

Hard Way WR here:

Both can be improved on when I get time!

Oh, and Lawnmower trick for good measure (watch on Wednesday getting hit by the lawnmower in center of bike). Outcome is variable using this trick, but got a good one here....similar to Grandstand Trick outcome!

For anyone interested, how to do the Grandstand Trick on Hard Way. I would always have breakage bonus under 14k otherwise you'll bust!
You can do this 7 days and get over 600k.

Trick done correct:

Trick done wrong...bust breakage as over 14k entering training course:

Only short vids showing Monday on both efforts.
