as a bowler... yeah... ouch...

dude is nuts doing that.

also, not a foul as he didn't let go of the ball

Hey Richo do you bowl? what centre??

Mint. Aussie GT racing on Fox.
How old would John Bowe be these days? Seems too old to be punting a F458 around a race track at pace.

Adam, they are the ones I bought. Prob one of the better prices you will get. You can try tempe tyres.

Yeah, Tempe are $130ea but cheaper shipping. It'll work out pretty similar with either of them.

[Adam]

Practically the same company anyway, I've heard!

FWIW i love the ku31s

[Rosey]

Yeah, I've heard good things about them. I suppose anything is better than 3 mis-matched tyres and one with a huge split in the sidewall.

I do. Just got back into it after 6 years hanging up my shoes, conditions have changed :/ I'm old and fat and my sholder and knee is rooted and I want new bowling balls

I bowl at cannington

My shitty stats - My teams ok status

theres alot of oldies coming back lately. ive heard cannington is a pretty good centre though. yet to actually get accross to the west coast to bowl a tournament. hoping for next year though.
knee trouble is 'ed. i had massive problems last year, heaps of physio and alot of changes in my game has helped to change it though. if your after new gear get onto the new Brunswick balls, they are releasing some awesome gear, cant go past the nexus line at the moment.

Im a columbia and track person (Rock on limited edition and a black stomp). Got a couple of old storm balls too, but I find them average (although I did get 297 with one)

Nice scores, I take it you're a lefty.. looks easy over that side (my mate is a lefty, always been 10 - 20 pins better than I.. I'm not jealous at all.. nooo...)


oh, yeah, cannington is ok. City (in the CBD) was better and Rosemount was always good (shit now though). Cannington when I was a kid was hard. I think the first ever 300 there was ~1999. Actually I just did some googles, it was in 2000

interesting, things sure are easier than they once were

[Richo]

hahha, I think I just googled yo ass



Dang son, you try to rip the cover stock off that thing

[mark300]

never found a columbia or track ball i liked, only ever had one hammer ball (black widow) that i really liked. used to bowl with storm, was then convinced to switch completely over to brunswick and scores went massively up, and had my first 300 within 2 months, havent thrown anything but brunswick since then.

Yeh i am Left handed haha. our centre is pretty even though left vs right, the horrible pin carry keeps us all pretty honest.
that graph is definately shows some stark differences. new gear and technology has made everything alot easier

I seriously considered one of these as a first car, back in the day when they were worth $2.

yeh thats me!
believe it or not my shot is actually alot tamer now than what it used to be.
Normally not playing that deep either. prefer to be playing down the boards outside of 2nd arrow.

[RX25SE]

I wish I could bowl like that!

Because lefty ;p


I've had 2 hammers, I hated both.

thats it. love being left handed some days haha.

black widow is the only one i ever liked, i trialled a few others and hated them all. hate storm gear as well, those things die after 5 games these days.

Need new tyres, almost had a blow out on the way to WTAC.. What's the best price on KU31's, or is there better & cheaper tyres around? All I could find was this, seems pretty good.

Also Nick, looking at an E30. What to look for, good models etc? Cheers.

Your real dime a dozen are the 325iS, what I have.
Only 180 entered the country and only 40 were manual.

Other then that just be weary of people rebadging, doing dodgies, putting fake body kits on and rust under the pedals and in the boot.

A lot of them have been absolutely thrashed, thankfully the M20 engine that comes in most of them is super strong and most can live a hard live without blowing a head and big end.. worst you normally find are some minor oil leaks.

Look for 325i's, 325is's and 323i's.. preferably 87-89.

If you want good detail shoot me a PM and I'll write you the ins and outs and what you really should look out for.

That was 2001. Shot changed (for the better) a lot since.
