Dual Spinners?

I'm in the planning stages of my next control panel, and have heard some people mention that they are installing dual spinners. My question is, which games use dual spinners? This control panel is going to be much bigger than my last one (will be mounted in cabinet eventually), and I don't want to regret not putting in 2 spinners later if there is a good reason for it.
I'm planning on having 4x 8way Joysticks, 1x 3" trackball, 1x spinner (or maybe 2?), 6 buttons for P1 & P2, 4 buttons for P3 & P4, coin and start buttons for all, 2 extra buttons above the spinner (for Tron!) and then several general MAME buttons (Esc, Tab, etc.). I'm going to be using a KE72T for this.
Any input greatly appreciated.
