Joining the club for a second time. Made a nice topper for it + a photo of my real Corvette.

Quoted from tb0ne:

Still looking for any advice that anyone can give on the LT5 exit gate. My frustration is growing immensely.
The gate is allowing balls through that it shouldn't. When it returns to its "home" position, it's not going down far enough. The spring has just enough tension that it's raising it just enough to let the ball through. It's not a technical issue, the solenoid fires as it should. Its a mechanical issue, and it's driving me nuts
I've tried bending the gate slightly so the solenoid will "pull" it at a slightly different angle. I tried stretching the spring slightly so in hopes it would put less tension on the gate an not pull it up ever so slightly. Nothing is working, and the game is pretty boring when you can never lock balls
Does anyone have ANY suggestions? I'm out of ideas. Is a replacement gate available? I'm willing to try a new gate and a new spring.
Also having a similar issue with the gate at the top of the playfield that's supposed to stop the ball during launch, but I haven't dared look at that one yet. Love this game but man there are some quirky things. The design of the gates with the springs seems really bad IMO.
ETA: Also if anyone would be able to take a picture of their gate that would be awesome. I'm looking to see the position of the little lever on the left side where the spring connects.

Try buying a new spring from Marco Specialties. Also where the stop washer (it is rubber) is placed on the wire makes a difference. Mine kept coming off as it was inside the spring hook, I moved it to the outside of the spring hook and have had no problems ever since.

Quoted from Sammy31:

There doesn't seem that anyone produces custom plastic protectors for Corvette. Does anyone know if a sling set from another game can be used?
Currently just using those clear disc's but my sling still got damaged....too much speed with corvette!

Yes, just look around. I used in my Corvette an extra set of Sling Protectors that I had for Attack from Mars. Also GOT and BKSOR seem to fit.
