13lb Core Specs
« on: March 24, 2007, 02:52:31 PM »
Anyone know where I can find 13lb core specs for track equipment, specifically the Machine, Equation 2, or equation?

14 is the lowest weight the go with the core. I think the 13 and lower are a traditional core, but with the same coverstock.

Traditional core being? Something like the core 2 or the triton core or what?

Track usually uses Core 2 (the Crunch Time/Solution) core in their lighter weight balls.  I don't know the RG and diffs in the lighter weights, but Track doesn't even publish the numbers for the normal weights either.  Probably medium-ish RG (2.54 or so) and medium to medium-low diff, 0.035-0.040.

In their Core 2 balls like the Crunch Time and Solutions, I've seen a reference to a "Rocket" core being used in lighter weights, but I don't know what it looks like.

I received an e-mail from their technical department in November regarding 13# cores.  It stated that Track uses a Reaction Arc core with no flip blocks.

You can e-mail them directly if you want further information.
