That's exactly what we used to call those old lap counters, the pinball machine! Does yours have the bells inside that countdown to the start of the race? Ding, ding, ding... Power On! As a kid I used to love that deal, it was one of the things that made racing at the commercial raceway special back then. I passed on a deal in the mid 1980's to buy an original American "Yellow" 80' track with power supply/time seller unit, "pinball machine" lap counter and stand for a lowly $500.00 - simply because I had no place to put it!
Man, there's one I wish I had back... Ernie :>)
