Here's the best link with all the specifics...  One of my favorites, and only ball I've ever used at Nationals from outside 5 well (got the front 9 once and only once...)

At best it'll be an entry level reaction and struggle when there is any sort of volume.

Probably will be great on burnt lanes, or at least after 3 games of league broken down .

Thunder Road, Victory Road, just 2 of the road series balls out of like 5 or 6 of them. They led to the Hyroad and Cross Road. Just go on You Tube and watch some of them. There’s an old video of J Rickets having a blast with the Victory Road. When you see how 4 by 3 and low res the videos are, you’ll see how old those balls really are.

Is it any good? I have no idea!
I wouldn’t buy it. You can just buy a Hyroad thats new at least.
Basically same core I think? Better cover of course. But if it's $15, why not?
