Just wondering what are some of the track "greats"
I think the 505c and 715c will be on the list some day. Your thoughts?

Triton Heat
Freak
Temper
Code Red SE (not in any particular order)
-
Tantrum!
I have 2 and they have made me more money than any other ball on late night conditions. Keep em on medium-medium light oil and the read on these are incredible.
-
Don't have their most recent stuff (might get a 505A soon, balls looks great), so here are my faves from the past:
Crunch Time
EMB Pearl
Mean Machine
Slash
Freak-A-Zoid
Mutant
KO Punch
Elliptical Mass Bias
--------------------
If it is to be, it is up to me.
-
Oh... I have a Phenom that is still great... I'll add that to my list
-
Original Heat. Used it with success on almost every condition I found. Fingers cracked out pretty bad, some day I'm going to have them plugged and bring it out of retirement.
-
Triton Elite Solid was the best ever from the Track line of balls for me.
Heat Remake not too bad.
Xception 5.0 the worse followed by the Contender
GP 2 so-so

For me the entire Heat line was awesome, as well as the Freak line.
Del warren did an excellent job designing the cores of those balls. There are still quite a few Track pieces that are extremely versatile on all conditions.
The Slash, Thrash, VooDoo, and Hex come to mind in terms of all around versatility. Personally, I loved the Enforcer, the Assassin, and also the Magic for toasty conditions.

Duct tape is like ''The Force''. It has a light side and a dark side, but it still holds the universe together.

TripleAAA+++ .... Also throw in the Shark...
Do you remember the boring white logo on the T-Shark?
We would re do it in Red and put it on display..
Really made the ball stand out...
I'll never forget the sales reps face when he first saw that...

Original Triton Heat
Triton Contender
Enforcer
Freak
EMB solid
--------------------
The original Pin Krusher
Edited on 3/20/2010 10:50 AM
-
For me, the Original Triton (blue pearl)
Also had a black pin KO Punch that was quite useful.
-
The original Heat was what put Track "on the map".
The Assassin, the VooDoo and the Elite solid seemed to be favorites of almost everyone who touched them.
I liked the Heat 2 Pearl, the Crunchtime, and the Solution Powerplus EX.

I won a lot of money and shot many good games with
my Track Flare (yes you heard that right!).
Ugly out of the box, sand it to 800-1000 with a little
polish and it was killer on wood lanes (at least for my
type of game).

My favorite track ball of all time is the freakazoid.
-
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Followed closely by...
Phenom Unleashed..
Aresenal Artillery

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I have to vote for the Track Animal for a good all around ball, that works for me. My Animal is still alive and kicking. I still use the Animal and rely on it just about every where I bowl.

Struggling with over under in our Sunday night league. Pulled out old reliable Arsenal Artillery (after having older guy shoot 750 on me with his the week before). Problem solved.
I would have to say Arsenal Artillery followed closely by the Power Machine.
My brother still uses his Freak-a-zoid regularly.
--------------------
Those that can do. Those that can't complain. Pimpin ain't easy, but it's mandatory.
Most things we like, we don't need. Most things we need, we don't like. Don't confuse your likes with your needs.

It was useless for lefties, but my favorite is the Rule GP2. That ball made house shots stupid easy. One of the few balls better than my Ebonite V2 Sanded.
-
NRG, Champ, Contender, Synergy, Inertia, GP2, Power Machine, Kinetic Energy. For me, everything else was sub-par.
