I am a serious Absolute lover but, could a Total compliment the Absolute?

it depends upon what you mean by compliment.

i would consider it a good step above the absolute.

if your absolute just isnt turning the corner, but would like the same breakpoint shape with the same layout, i'd say, have at it, it'll be a great step up.

Actually, a Total Inferno is incapable of complimenting anything as it's an inanimate object. However, I think the question is can it COMPLEMENT the Absolute Inferno?

Sorry, don't mean to be the vocabulary police but as the son of an English Prof. I'm really getting tired of seeing the word "compliment" misused over and over again.

If I wanted an English lesson, I would have asked for it numbnuts. The next time you have the urge to be a grammer nazi, why dont you take it and shove it straight up your butt for gods sake.

BTW, I dont think a grammer nazi and a butthole would compliment each other becasue, they are both the same kind of thing.

So it depends.

Thank you very much for an actual answer to my question. Looks like a Total is not for me then.

Bro, I think the Total would overlap with the Awesome Revs quite a bit.

Based on what I've seen, anyway...

Just out of curiosity, have you seen the video on the Brunswick site that compares the Total to the Radical, Absolute, and Scorchin'?  It pretty much mirrors what I've seen with the Total and Absolute, that being that the Total is a bit longer than the Absolute but a *lot* sharper at the break.
