Street Rod Pearl will be slightly earlier and smoother off the breakpoint basically.  My mom has a Street Rod Pearl with a pin down layout and a Tropical Storm with a pin up layout, so it's hard to compare them directly, but the Tropical is stupidly angular at the breakpoint, and the Street Rod Pearl is much more arcing and smooth, though it still revs up very hard off the dry and turns left.

Cover is much stronger on STREET ROD PEARL (see my later post cover is listed same but years different batches). I used it much of last weekend's PBA RPC on the fresh on wood. SR PEARL also is much more of a roll movement than TROPICAL. SR PEARL is best control ball Storm has made in some time for me. Ordered a solid to try to get that look on more oil.

yes, the tropical and SR pearl have the same cover.
however, the street rods, for me, were quite strong actually. the pearl will easily outhook the tropical, and yes, it will a little earlier and a little smoother.

now the solid, that ball flat out HOOKS. i couldn't believe how much it moved when i threw it at a Storm demo.

Angle and vector be damned, we're going to the moon!!!

right im not saying the street is the same as the tropic I love my street rod pearl and I plan on drilling the soild soon. I was just asying to make sure that the covers were the same on the 2 cause I thought riggs said the cover for the street rod was stronger so I just wanted to make sure I was not missing something lol

Well I really appreciate the comments above.

I'm looking for longer and more angular so I think I will go with the Tropical that I have laying around undrilled.

I threw it recently on the local (no midlane oil condition) and was impressed with how it almost skipped over that pavement that we call lanes from 14 feet to 40 feet and yet still seemed to be able to turn on the carrydown.

We'll punch it and see.

To me the Street Rod Pearl reminds me a lot of what I have seen of the Wrath Dead Flush from Columbia....anyone seen or agree?
