    Just bought some tubes of victor Gold Champion.

    I want to verify that I have received the speed I asked for - how can you tell from the tube?

    The speed is shown on the white cap of the tube.

    hmm, I did have a quick look at the caps although I will admit I was largely concentrated on scouring the tube.

    I will check the caps again! thanks.

    found it! speed 78. Found them to be on the fast side, always flying inches past the back doubles service line - some nearly got to the rear court line... glad I didn't get speed 79 that Paul needs for where he plays!

    Virtually all the halls I use require speed 79. It's amazing how often I watch others playing with incorrect speeds.

    I don't find victor gold champion here in Vancouver, is it equal to victor Master no. 1?
    Cheers.
