Just wanted to let you all know about my roadtrip to sirtype's to pick up a TZ. We left the Starburst auction at 2pm and headed to Gatineau, after a glitch in Toronto's traffic... everything went smooth. Much thanks to poolguy for providing his plush ride and his GPS. And my brother in law for helping with the driving. Leaving sirtype's after 10 was a breeze by just following that little line on the GPS. It was great to meet some members from MAACA... meatpopsicle at Starbust and sirtype at his place...thanks for the drinks...love those small coke bottles. Got home at 4am after several Timmys pit stops. We were all pretty wound up. Set up the TZ and played till dawn. My son woke up from all the noise and he joined in too. This is what I would call a great weekend.

Good buy!!!!! I tried it at his house on Thursday man it was fast and hard to play really mint with allot of mods. Really good buy for you man!!
Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated.
Pat told me someone was over playing it earlier in the week. We played his TOTAN and CP. I almost thought my bro in law was going to buy TOTAN...he put his initials on after a high scoring game an reached for his wallet. I'm not sure if there would have been room in the Suburban.

whoever had it before pat did allot of nice work on it. I played allot of TZ and that one had to be the best one i ever player and it was lightning fast. There was one ball that would go slower because it was older ball then the others.

Yeah I felt it. It moved diffrent and slower. I had more controll on it then the other balls. Even asked Pat about it and he said yeah thats old ball. He was also supprised.. When they get used you see they move diffrent because they have a specfic movement than newer ball because of scratches that can slow it down or dirty ect. I do know this I normally love power ball on your TZ I was not looking forward to it because it was 3 times faster then most powerballs I have played.

Ethous Just went and checked. One ball had some marring. I will install new mirror balls tonight.
Thats wild...you felt that in the game play?
The mods are fun...they all feel like they should have been there right from the production day.
Thanks for the heads up.

Mine could pass for HUO and its not fast Lots of stop and go!
Hey Mark,
Mine plays fast. Sure there is some stop and go to the game play, but that doesn't effect the ball on the playfield . When you shopped it, did you wax the playfield?
Say 'yes' to classic Sterns. Complete MAACA-Wacko!

I wish we had more time on Saturday. I would’ve liked to check out your impressive lineup of pins. By comparing other peoples pins it gives you the idea’s of what to tweak on your own.
