Radical Rack Attrack Pearl Layout Request

Post by stansadude »

Greetings,

Speed = 13.5 on qubica
Rev Rate = 230
Initial Axis rotation = 70
Initial Axis Tilt = 7

You probably understand with my slow speed, I struggle the most on higher friction lane surfaces with lower volume house patterns (especially when they break down). At my age I have given up on increasing my ball speed because this only gets my out of sync and I start forcing things.

I have a Radical Rack Pearl with my benchmark layout but even it has been a challenge to get it down lane at times. I do not want to alter the surface on this one because it is a beast on lower friction surfaces.

I just picked up another one on a deal I could not pass up and I am hoping you can provide me with a layout that will help with my struggle.

Thank you inn advance.

Regards,

Stan

I just noticed your request has gone unanswered. Sorry I didn't see it sooner.

You will find that with your slower speed the low flare layouts will serve you well on higher friction conditions.

Have you drilled up your second Rack Attack?

My suggestion would be for a low flare layout 70-5-35.
