It's likely accurate to the actual arcade controls... but...

I could have sworn there was an update some time ago, that converted all gearshifts of this type to toggle by default in MAME... forget when it was, or even if I'm remembering it right.

Makes sense, due to this option:

Maybe Stocker was just missed? And it just needs to be updated?



RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.
