It was a sales gimmick, like "Super Heavy Duty" for crappy carbon zinc batteries.
They have a higher initial thrust than normal C6 motors and then they have a very low and long sustaining thrust. Total impulse was about .5 Newton-seconds more than a C6 motor.

Estes and Centuri motors were identical and made on the same machines in Penrose CO. |
