Graham, Don't think you will have a camera with a shutter speed fast enough to catch what you want to see. Probably need at least 1/500th of a second and some luck. Edgerton's strobe pics were much faster...slow ones were 1/600th. Those 8 ball impact pics were all taken in about .0005 second (ball was on face for .0004 sec)...don't even want to figure that speed out.
Not sure what you want me to agree with until I get time to look at the graphs...too late tonight.
