Title: tz3 core
Post by: sneaky PETE on December 11, 2018, 03:20:16 PM

seen that the tz3 had the mega thrust core. wondering if it was ever used again or if planned to use again. (sorry about the massive picture)

If I had to guess, I'd say it hasn't been used again and won't be used in the original form because of the .060 diff.

We all know the Jackal issue with diff

The core in the TZ3 was an exclusive pour for a distributor in Europe and contractually can not be used elsewhere. (According to a Motiv staffer at the Nationals booth in Baton Rouge)

Is it true or bullshit? I have no idea. From my personal context, it does seem possible. I have three of the TZ3's, two still in the box and all three came from Europe.

TZ3 was the first limited edition overseas ball we made. With an .060" primary diff, it was a modified version of the original Thrust core that has an .052".

Won't be seeing Mega-Thrust back, for a variety or reasons.
