ANYTHING! you buy on Amazon after clicking that link doesn't raise your prices but gives us a referral tip, thank you!
The buildings are probably from the artist's imagination, but with the race track, the boats, and the cliffs in the background I'm assuming this is meant to represent Monaco, which is famous for hosting Grand Prix races.
Well that would make sense :)
That's a really cool machine! I believe car #7 (green) is a McLaren M23 and car #6 (salmon) is a Shadow DN5, both cars raced in the 1976 F1 season :)
Cool. Grand Prix was my first pinball... A small tabletop toy game. I was probably around 4-5.
Thank you for a great, informative and really entertaining vid.
Really appreciate you sharing your work with us
Thanks London! We appreicate yall watching.
It bounced out of the last hole even when it was more level. Also, there's a skill bump to save an outside lane depending on how sensitive tilt is set.
Nice machine, been watching all the repairs, a lot of stuff inside this model !
Yes it's really cool, I like this one! Thanks for watching!
thanks again joe and crew x :)
Thanks Hope we appreciate you watching :)
great tour!!!
Awesome. This looks like such a fun game!
We thought so too :)
the only EM i ever played (in memory,) was a williams or gottlieb supersonic or some kinda aircraft themed one. similar with five drop targets, five per side. it didn't however feature openings that will drop the ball out, if you capture it, rather than strike and it rolls back and behind the flipper.
4:32 It's Monaco, hence the buildings, waterfront, boats and palm trees.
Would be badass If it changed bonus lanes based off a certain target or one of the point relays. Frustrating too lol
Have played and liked that pinball!
It's pretty fun!
Love the vids! Keep them coming.
Thanks Greg, many more videos on the way :)
I love the sound of an EM machine resetting so I isolated the sound of the machine resetting from this video (Joe's Classic Video Games i hope you do not mind) and created a WAV and MP3 file and use it for Windows Logon Sound..if anyone else wants the sound here it is:
WAV: mickeymousepark.com/misc/pinballreset.wav
MP3: mickeymousepark.com/misc/pinballreset.mp3
I don't mind at all, that's pretty cool :)
That's a cool Pin!👍
Thanks Silly Sausage!
Will someone answer the damn door please! lol
I was doing a video last night and the phone is actually ringing in the background! Amateurs!
Nice EM full of features 👍😎
it's Loaded!
It sounds like old till machine from cartoon. Some dark canvas over score board could help with reflections.
I might try that...
Yes, that machine is definitely on free play.....the mystery of the gate....will we ever know?
i love the fact you read the instruction card..many people dont..and miss out of features!!! i have a MISS O ..and if you dont read the instruction card..you dont know how to get a free ball..cause it is not "mentioned" on the playfield... LOL
Yeah it makes the games a lot more fun if you know what you're supposed to be doing :)
This game is a good tournament machine.
Has the potential for some really high scores!
It's funny they didn't add a light for the dummy score reels...
It look like ever 3rd spin of the spinner it adds a bonus. Looks like every time the lite is on a blue triangle and leaves it you get a bonus added to your your lane. So foe every ten spins you get 3 bonus added...Hard to tell from the video but that is what I would say is going on with those red spinner lights.
It seemed to me like when those spinners get going it just racks up all kinds of stuff, it may be moving so fast that the stepper unit can't count it right but I didn't look into it too much as long as it seemed pretty consistent :)
@@LyonsArcade watch it as it spins. it seems about every 3rd position for the red light it will add a white bonus light below it.
I just looked in the schematics, it does it on every third, sixth, and 10th position. If you look around on the schematic you'll find what I'm talking about : www.ipdb.org/files/1072/Williams_1976_Grand_Prix_Schematic_Diagram_continuous_includes_correction_to_L_R_Kickers.pdf
Something I've always wanted to know: How heavy is the chrome pinball itself?
Not sure!
The higher point rewards seemed to "scroll up", with several smaller sums being added to your score over a short time. How does the game handle multiple such events happening concurrently? Do they block or interfere with each other? In practice the need to move the ball probably provides plenty of delay between such things, but with the hood up you could try tapping them at the same time with your finger to see what happens.
It doesn't have any way to remember anything, so if you were to score two things at once the score reels would only turn once for each point scored... so two at the same time would only score once.
@@LyonsArcade Thanks! That's interesting. I wonder if "multi-ball" then was specifically made possible by the move to solid state.
There were a couple Multi Ball EM games that were true marvels, I've never had one though so I'm not sure how they worked.
Williams were made for rockin and sockin....I imagine everyone knows this, but n some tough Williams” if the ball exited on the left, the speed would be so fast in would bounce against the wall below the right flipper. If you gave a little bump at the moment of impact, the ball would bounce up and back enough to flick it with the right flipper and it bring it back from the grave. Didn’t work but maybe 30% of the time, but when it did! Yay.
Ahhh, the old death save :)
Is it me? It looks like the left flipper is screwed to the left. They are not centered on the board.
This pinball machine doesn't show you Tyrrell P34 F1s in the mural.
Great video, How much for this beauty?
We already sold it... but it was $1299.
@@LyonsArcade thanks , 👍👍
The play field is a woman in a spacesuit.
I can kind of see it...
Great game, but it's set WAY too steep.
Yeah, somebody who knows what the hell they're doing ought to turn those leg levelers down! Shitty video!
@@LyonsArcade HAHA! I mean, you could just hang the table up on the wall if you wanted it REAL-MAN-STYLE! :D
