The turntable does block a lot of pop bumper action.

But it appears the height of the turntable could be raised w/out hitting pf glass.

Please someone do a mod for this!!! Would require the 4 areas it is secured to to get spacers but tough one is rotating drive to get raised...or not so tough???

I have considered just removing the car all together. Then changing out the car for 3 or 4 smaller ones. The same size as the ones on the ramps.

The spinning wheel that moves the turntable needs a tire and wheel on top of it as well.

Why would you want raise the hight of the turn table?

That's not a bad idea. It'd be pretty easy to get a thin sheet of clear lexan to screw into the factory hole that you can mount the car(s) to. You could even go so far as to get a 1/43 scale Mustang and add some cotton batting to it to make it look like it's doing actual donuts!

I've never played the the pin but I've contemplated getting a boss premium. I figured raisin the turn table would block the view more.

I assume to remove the car You remove the 4 nuts holding the brackets down that are on the red posts?

I also think you need to remove the bracket that says Mustang store.

Would be easy to see if vision of pops is better to temporarily raise the turntable and not worry about the shaft spinning the table as shaft would be below it?

Smaller car in the middle would definitely fix the issue!

Once You remove the bolts and unhook the wire from under the pf how do You get to the screw holding car down under the turntable?

I've been thinking of putting in a "rearview mirror" just under the back ramp. There is space there. So it would be like Theatre of Magic.

I tested a sheet of tinfoil, and it was reflecting the rollover lights nicely. A proper mirror cut to fit that area would work great.

I thought the same on that mirror effect

In the manual on page B11 and B12 show the attaching points of the car. The top of the Turntable has to be separated from the lower cross bracing. Make sure to line up the optical encoder biscuit in the proper place on assembly.

Thanks! Mustang is a great game and Premium is da bomb. Get a little better view of the pops and it will be sick
