heard the Tempest whirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr for the first time yesterday.
I've read countless articles here about how the original, worn, Tempest spinners have this infamous whirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr sound when they are spinning.
Yesterday my complete CP arrived from member johnnya and, upon opening the box, I immediately checked the spinner assy to see if it made this noise. Shonuff, it does.
For the sake of nostalgia I totally foresee leaving mine in that fashion, and not doing a lube or rebuild on it unless it's absolutely necessary.
It's really nice to be able to share and be included in yet another popular piece of arcade gaming lore. Damm I miss those days!
