Beta; cabinet verified; timing passed (all corners)

One core for Cruis'n USA (rev L4.4), Cruis'n World (rev L2.5) and Off Road Challenge (rev 1.63), the whole game in the FPGA at arcade speed. Full analog steering in Cruis'n World (map Test, then run Calibrate Controls once). New mappable Test, Service, Volume Up/Down and Nitro (Off Road) buttons, appended so saved maps stay valid. OSD options for analog pedals on the right stick, pots on the DE10-Nano ADC header, and cabinet switches/steering motor via SNAC; defaults play the same as before. The optional force-feedback wheel helper is not installed by this feed.

These statements describe the published core build. They do not establish that every supported game has passed every cabinet test.
