That is odd – looking at the internals, it appears that the event for the collision of the 2 with the top gutter got lost, due to a bug in the code!
OK, one ugly fix later (from an efficiency perspective – rather than restructure to prevent the bug, I added a few redundant calculations to fix it when it occurs – accuracy is unaffected), the gutter-skipping problem is fixed, so the sim time when the last pin collides with a gutter is about 113.68.
It’s past my bedtime. I’ll recheck the previous games tomorrow, and redo my statistics.

Ok, I'll try again (and again and again I'm sure). Actually, I'd like to compare two different approaches this time.

Ball mass=1.7
x=5.1
v=(.13,1.5)

Left the 2, 4, 5, 6, and 10. (which emphasizes how unlike actual bowling with tall, skinny 3-d pins this game is, as this seems nearly impossible in that game):
