I played foosball in the 60s and 70s on coin-operated machines with glass tops, cork balls, and one-man goalies. These machines also had aggressive corner ramps (drop-in ramps?). The ramps seemed to allow the game to move quickly -- or required players to move quickly as opponents took advantage of the ramps. I know current models use a lower angled corner ramp -- but does anyone ever 'modify' their tables? What are the pros / cons?

These days, the main American table doesn't have ramps. Some other tables do but the ramp is typically integrated into the playfield so I doubt any modifies that. There is a facebook group that deals with vintage 1907's tables. Someone on there might be able to give you some input.
