    Track 811 C/T
    Nightmare
    Hellraiser revenge
    Aura
    Nexxxus

    Being speed dominant, from your list I would go with the Nightmare or Aura.....I would also consider the Defiant Soul over the Defiant.....just my opinioon!

    well if you want a skid/flip that has a strong backend then the 811c/t is the way to go but if you want a nice mid lane read and strong backend then you should go with the aura or aura paranormal (ik the paranormal was not in your list but it would be a great ball to add stronger then the arua)

    The Nexxxus is an awesome ball, but given your speed dominance i would go with the solid or hybrid over pearl, Nightmare, Brutal Nightmare, Paranormal Aura, 811c/t, vg nano solid, HHR, Motiv Raptor Talon, Hammer First Blood, or C300 Enigma.

    I don't know too much about most of those balls. The Nightmare and Aura are the only ones I've checked up on before. Both are pretty strong balls and might be a little too strong for a THS if it's not heavy oil every time. But they'd do nicely for a sports shot I'd imagine.

    Just do a little surface change on one of your current balls. Saves you a ton of money!

    well i got offered a deal on a used but like new 811 c/t for 75 but i wasnt sure if it was a heavy oil ball as the perfect rating was only 205 i believe and the heavy oil ball are usually 215+. Maybe i have the wrong idea about what the perfect scale means

    yeah, if you got the too reckless taken down from 2000 to something lower like 1000 or 800 it will get the extra bit you are looking for.
