No, it's a conquest.

That's a lot of paddles.

$33 for the whole lot? If so, thats awesome! Congrats man.

Huh? It's one set of paddles in the original retail box. The paddles that come with Indy 500 aren't really paddles. Paddles have stops. Driving controllers can be turned infinitely in either direction. Paddles are also wired together in pairs. Driving controllers are individual.

 

This is the box I mean

Good find there!....I always wanted the Indy 500 with the special paddles....new in box alone makes that a nice purchase....really hard to find those. BTW anybody know if those controllers were ever sold as a stand alone?

[OldAtarian]

Damn stupid ebay. That listing had several days to go and the seller had more than one item to sell. Have to find another pic now. grumbles.

Can normal paddles be used to play Indy?

 

It's been 25 years, but I seem to remember the answer being no.

Nope, you need the Driving Controllers to play Indy 500.
