The numbers on the Tank Blitz look a lot like the ball I was hoping they would make... Venom Core with a heavier rollier cover than the Venom Shock.
The only thing that would've made it batter for me would've been a some Venom marketing behind it. Who doesn't like a new snake ball???

That red tank is rumored to be extremely strong in the front of the lane, will be an interesting release, probably will grab one because I really like the Covert Tank.
The Supra, well I know covers have gotten better since they last used that core, but yikes, there's reasons companies don't go that high of RG, so we'll see, probably will skip this one.

is it because the toyota supra just came back? thats ironic

The unusual thing about the Supra is that big of diff on that high of RG at least for Motiv. Still other companies have done it recently especially with 2 piece balls (Quantums, Poison, Hy-Roads, etc). I might actually match up with it because do tend to like higher RG stuff for its energy retention.

JMO but Motiv's Ball Guide has Motiv's equipment placed by price point not strength. Smoothest to most angular OOB is correct but not strength.
The Supra weight block High Impulse is new with changed densities from the OG Impulse weight block also. It is not 2 piece. I believe Motiv is trying to get the Storm skid-flip ball motion with the Supra and that type of market.
My driller took his Tank Blitz and polished it as he found the OOB bled to much energy and he puts down a higher volume blended pattern at his place. When I watched him roll the Tank Blitz it was a perfect track area ball, pin over ring, matched bowler.

The Supra isn't that far out there for core numbers, at least for the 15 lb. version. 2.57 and .050 is fine. Not something that matches up for everybody, but still in the standard range.

Have we forgotten the core numbers of the Hy-Road?
Doom, I see you on the Motiv board. Welcome back! ;D

If Motiv ever gets around to making a 2 piece ball I will probably pre-order it, even though need yet another one like need a coronary. Really started to fall for Motiv since switched to fingertip and re-did arsenal.
