Track?s intent with the all new 508A is to bring you a new and improved version of the original 505A. What makes the 508A an improved version of the 505A? First we started with the ever popular Legion Core that we used in the best-selling Track ball in recent years, the 607A. Next we worked on creating a cover that would be just as angular as the cover used on the 505A. After testing several different covers, we said to ourselves, ?if it isn?t broke, don?t fix it.? By combining the MP GEN 4 Reactive Pearl veneer and the Legion Core, we have provided Track fans with a ball motion that is stronger than the 505A while maintaining the same overall look on the lanes. The 508A, with the help of the MP GEN 4 Reactive Pearl veneer, is designed to be stronger off the spot that its predecessor. The 508A also brings a different surface than the 505A as now we use three different grits of Abralon pads, 800, 1000, and 2000, followed by Powerhouse Factory Finish Polish. Both the intermediate and overall differential are higher in the new 508A which provide more flare potential and a stronger overall core than the 505A. The combination of the MP GEN 4 Reactive Pearl veneer and the modified Legion Core, should provide you with a quicker responsive and overall more aggressive product than the previous 500 series balls.

Comments about Track 508A:

Great Ball, Like how it hooked, rolled, drived through the pins, Colors, the pins layouts. I have the TRACK KINEIC PEARL AND STORM PBT and NOW the NEW TRACK 508A... TRACK 508A beats the Pearl in my opinion... IM only a 194avg player so far...

Comments about Track 508A:

Ive had the 505A and i loved that ball, once the 607A SE came out i had to get it, i was a little disappointed by the way it handled the lanes. The 607 had a tendency to be very rolly and not hit too hard. I decided to give the 508A a chance and i was not disappointed. First 9 games out of box averaging 230, my average is usually around 210. The ball has some great backend and it hits harded then any other track ball i have owned. Do not be fooled this ball is still very strong. If you want something weak this might not be the ball, but i must say even when the lanes break down this ball seems to still hit hard and hook late.

the ball does most of the work
