funny thing that you asked. I was in a local store which let me test the table every time I stop by. I consider myself as a better than beginner fooser, when I was shooting euro pin shot on the elite the ball came flying out of the ball return and lightly hit me in the N*t .. hahah.
if you are buying new, I would bite the bullet and buy the T3000 because the resale value would be higher.
background. I have been researching and looking for the tornado and fireball table for 1-1.5 yr now. so hard to come by..
