Core diffrences
« on: January 13, 2008, 01:53:39 PM »
I see the new rapid fire is coming out, with the non inverted core. Simple question what diffrences would you see, between the two cores. I have a spit fire and love it, and also a specail agent, and i see the new rapid fire has the R2S cover and with that core, could be a real nice combo.

Well the diablo, fired up, and the pyro had the same core as the spit fire but it was not inverted. I could be wrong but with the fired up and the spit fire since they were the same all the way through mostly besides which way the core was flipped. I heard alot that if the spit fire and fired up were layed out the same the spit fire started up earlier with similar results. So my guess is that the rapid fire is going to go longer then your special agent due to the fact that the core in the SA is much stronger making it start up earlier. This means that the backend on the Rapid fire should be much stronger and make a harder and more defined move off the break point. That is just my thougths on this, I hope this helps out man.

I have a Pyro, and it revs up moderately far down the lane, and when it makes it's move is a hard arc to the pocket, with a ton of continuation. I've seen a Fired Up  which is basically the same ball without particle, and that thing was WICKED off the break point, very angular. Then I've only seen one inverted Twin-V, the Spit Fire. It was a bit of a tamer piece, super rolly-like and picked up a lot sooner than either the Pyro or Fired Up I saw. So my guess is that bowler0821 is spot on and this Rapid Fire is going to be mostly if not all (especially since it's a polished piece) backend.
