I thought that Mike Wolfe was using a Vapor Zone on the left lane. If I'm wrong then I apologize.

Tim, maybe you need to adjust the color/birightness on your set.  The Action and Zone Classic were easily recognizable.

Jurek's Action looked a little different than the one Wes Malott used earlier, but it still had the same swirl pattern.  YOu can identify them by the "web" looking thing the colors seem to make around the grip area.  And Wolfe's zone classic looked like mine.  Albeit mine is a red pin version and his wasn't.

AK is right about the weblike separation of colors around the pin on Columbia produced balls.  You can also see it on Scroggins RR and my Alter Ego has a similar pattern as well...

The Action may have appeared different due to a change in the surface preparation.

Wes's Action that was used on past shows was polished. Jack's appeared to be in box like finish.

Not sure, but Collins looked like he was throwing an Atomic Charge by storm, not an over time.

After looking at the Over Time, It was probably that, but one can't say the two don't look similar.
