Hello All,
Finally finished my Speed review. It's in a pdf format so if you don't have a mac you will need Acrobat reader installed. It's free and you can get it here...

If the mods are happy for me to I can post the text of the review here but it is over 2000 words! Let me know...
Hope you enjoy it - Ben

let's see how many complain about the pdf format first, also if we can get Jason to do his here then we can turn this into a review thread, only good full reviews, not it rips and I love it type of reviews.

I didn't think so, but I haven't commented on that in the review because I was using it in a game for the most part and couldn't be totally objective about that as it's a subtle matter.
I will be looking at that in more detail this weekend and can add that info along with the other stuff when my Halo arrives etc

Excellent review. Jason will join you soon I'm sure in providing us with another great review.
Now, get me exact measurements to compare to thr IR3 and open that baby up to see the internals!

Geez, what do you guys have against PDF? PDF kicks some majorly primo ghetto bootie.
I'm a graphic design student, and it makes things MUCH easier to deal with. In fact, Illustrator 10 files are now PDF compatible by default.

Oh, mine will be here tomorrow along with a Halo, so I'll put some paint through it that way this weekend and let you all know how it went.

j_gets...some people either don't have Adobe Acrobat and don't want to download it, or they just don't like it...IMO it's a little nicer to read than MS Word, but I've never tried to put anything into a pdf format so I don't know how it is to work with. I've got it both at home and at work so it doesn't bother me, some people may not have room on harddrives to utilize the program (my old pc was that way)

Good Review, your hard work is appreciated.
Yep, I showed E-Rob the Speed bolt at the Vegas NPPL, he was totally surprised and looked a little distressed. I'm no lawyer, but I doubt if he has much recourse in the matter. We all know that this sort of thing happens in paintball.
In keeping up with WDP's classy image, it would be the cool thing to do if WDP would acknowledge Eric's moment of engineering genius and credit him with bolt design. Eric showed me his bolt over a year ago and I have witnessed it's ability to increase velocity in many Angels. This bolt definitely helps the Speed to operate at the new touted lower pressures.
Hey! WDP, show E-Rob some luv!
By the way, he loves his new life in SoCal working for Dave and Dye.
