heard some rumors of a new release soon
lower end of the line
anybody else heard anything?
-
No but every July roughly they release 3-4 balls. So very likely in a month or so you will hear of 3-4 new releases for the up coming season
-
I would say a new one will come out in mid/late June. That's when I always buy a brand new Track ball right before I go to Louisville for the Derby tournament. Plus, Track was teasing something on Facebook last week of a possible new ball.
-
something along the lines of the 400 ball is what i heard
-
Just announced.

Tour X
Core: To achieve the desired performance, we started with our poplular DNA core. This symmetric core design offers a high radius of gyration combined with an equally high overall differential. This symmetric design offers more predictability while the higher differential provides for a wider variety of drilling options.
Cover: For this release, we our using our new Luxury DR-4 Pearl coverstock. The formula for this cover uses a higher grade of resin compared to any of our previous releases. This higher grade of resin creates more vibrant colors as well as improved performance at the back end of the lane.
Finish: The Tour X is finished with 500/800/1000/2000 Abralon® and polished with our Powerhouse Factory Finish. This finish will provide smooth length through the front part of the lane while maintaining plenty of motion for the back end. This will be ideal on tougher patterns that have been broken down.
Overall: When bowling on tougher oil patterns, bowlers tend to lean towards a bowling ball that uses a symmetrical core design. The reason for this is symmetrical cores allow the bowler’s release to have more influence on reaction of the ball. That’s why we are combining
our most successful symmetric core in recent years, the DNA core, with our Luxury DR-4 Pearl cover.
When the lanes get tough, smart bowlers get Tour X!

Spare +
Manufacturer’s Intent: Every ball we design at Track serves a purpose and this one is no different. Unlike the traditional plastic ball, the Spare + features a performance core which allows this new release to not only pick up spares, but strikes when other balls are hooking too much.
Core: The Spare + features a single density version of our high performance i-Core. The large flare potential, combined with the assymetric core design, will give the Spare + the hitting power traditional polyester balls simply can’t provide.
Cover: Polyester covers provided a decent amount of hook back in the 70’s. Today, they make perfect spare balls due to the low friction levels they create on modern bowling environments.
Finish: This one comes with a 800/1000/2000 Abralon® Polished w/ Powerhouse Factory Finish Polish. This finish is perfect for picking up spares and for drier lane conditions.
Overall: The new Track Spare + is not only the best looking polyester ball on the market, it is also multi-functional. With this new release, we are giving Track fans the spare ball they require, along with extra hitting power making the Spare + a useful strike ball as well.

They were just posted on their website
-
Tour X looks nice. Are they going away from the new name system already?
-
They did keep an X in the name :P
-
I wish it was a solid cover cant see this being that much different than the 400a. Same core, same numbers.
-
The cover on this ball should read the mids better or sooner than the 400a. The block and numbers are the same on 400ase and 300c solid.
Just my 2 cents. When I get my hands on the ball I will give a full review.
-
Should be smoother and more controlled than the 400A.
Im gonna buy both for sure. I dont have a 400A to compare to though.
-
Sounds like a cop out to compete with other big selling current "tour" releases...
If it can outdo the arson low flare and the iq line...it may sell.
