Spare ball with a Core

Post by sethketelsen »

I'm planning on drilling a Track Spare+ for a plastic ball tournament and for Nationals. My favorite layouts are as follows:

30 x any distance x 60
20 x any distance x 50
50 x any distance x 10
00 x 5.75" x 70

Would it be better to drill it to arc? Or to have some angle? Or does it not matter?

Speed: 15-16mph
RPMs: 375
Axis tilt: 8*
Axis Rotation: 35*

You’ll want a strong layout and a crap load of surface if you’re wanting to use it to strike, and it’s still a down and in shot

I'm looking to use it as a spare ball and then for a primary when things are completely torched at Nationals. Something along those lines.

If you're doing that, you're in the wrong part of the lane, especially at 375RPM.
