Track Critical Mass
« on: March 09, 2005, 02:38:32 AM »
Greetings sportsfans,
I need some info on this ball.  I am aware that it has been
discontinued, however, I am considering making a purchase.
The one I am considering is a 16#er and is drilled at 3 o'clock.
Any info such as core and coverstock configuration, and lane conditions
best suited for, will be greatly appreciated.

Thnx,
Tony

Hey Tony

I've had a couple of those balls and actually, it was one of my favorites. Is the pin in or out? How far out is it? You say 3:00. What that does is cheapen the back end, gives it an earlier, arcing type of roll. How is the surface?  It's a reactive resin and has a core in core design. A ceramic core. It came dull O o B, but I liked mine shiny (d/r) and would recommend that you keep it that way. It's a great ball  I loved mine. I wish I could find some new in box 15lbers, I would buy two. The Sensor II is also a Critical Mass technically. Same core. (blue pearl, pink label)

I still have one and it's in good shape. It's a 16lber and I dropped to 15 a few years ago. I liked the ball so much I had a blank one in the closet to drill the same as the original. Mine is a pin up drilling and I kept it shined up for lanes that were hooking. It went long and flipped over rolling very strong through the deck. If you know anyone who wants to buy some Track 16lb balls that are in great shape, let me know.
