I stopped and looked at these last night. Ad only lists Top Skater, but they also have a 2 player sit-down Final Lap and a 2 player sit-down Suzuka 8 Hours 2 (I think it was 2).

Final Lap has one monitor working. Owner says the other was fine until yesterday morning when it "blew" because she turned it on when it was too cold (games are in a semi-heated barn). She seemed genuine. Other monitor looked nice. Overall cosmetics seemed pretty nice, though I didn't look it over too carefully. I didn't try it out, but they said everything works besides that monitor. She said $100 since the monitor blew.

Suzuka looked pretty decent but couldn't play. She said they bought it (and the others) at Superauction a few years back. It was working when they bought it, but they left it for a little while and walked around and someone stole some wiring from inside it. She mentioned a "12 wire". Not sure exactly what that means as I don't know much about vids yet (I'm a pin guy), or if she had something wrong (she didn't seem super-knowledgable about them either). She said they have never been able to use it. I didn't look it over real carefully, but it looked nice at a quick glance. I believe she said $100 for this one also, but it might have been $300. She said "same as the other one" but after thinking about it I'm not sure which of the two others she meant. Probably the Final Lap though.

Top Skater supposedly works great but they didn't turn it on as she was still freaked out about blowing Final Lap's monitor and didn't want to risk the same with this one. I'm sure they'd turn it on for someone serious or if it was warmer. Looked pretty decent except for some of the grab rail padding was well worn and ripped. It's HUGE though. If there was any chance I could get it crammed in my basement I think I'd try since it looked really cool. I don't have the height though...that thing is really tall. HUGE projection monitor...had to be in the 55" range. Very cool. She said $300 on it.

They are in a barn in the middle of nowhere Waldo, WI (near Sheboygan/Plymouth area). She seemed like a really nice lady. They also had a foosball table (cheaper but decent one for $75) and an old bumper pool table that I didn't catch the price on. Pretty neat set-up...they had a portion of their old barn set-up like a gameroom. She said they never use it anymore though, which is why they are selling the stuff off. Kind of a shame really. I could see really decking that place out. They also have pool tables and a dart machine in there but I don't think they were for sale. There's some beer signs and other random "rummage sale" stuff too.

Sounds like the sale goes through Sunday. If anyone is interested but can't get there let me know. I live pretty close and could stop back there and check things closer if it would help anyone out.
