06 apex gt weight transfer feels like old rx1

[great white north]

Traded my 03 rx1 for 06 apex gt in order to upgrade to e.f.i and improve weight transfer with new mono rear skid. I am happy with sled except no matter what I do with transfer rod or shock adjustments, it does not hook out of the hole very well and feels just like my old rx1. It has stock clutching, 1.1/4 paddle track with 144 1.3/8 studs, transfer rod adjusted to max. and limiter strap on highest setting. Any suggestions? I need advice because my buddy's 99 mach z 800 is pulling me by two sleds out of the hole and I'm sick of seeing doo taillights.

Give up - it'll never hook - trade back for your "old rx-1" wait a minute - I won't give it back !!

you have to adjust the transfer rod them things can get a lot of transfer if you set the rod at full transfer.

pro 116, I have transfer rods adjusted to max on wrench guage but I am wondering if the longest settting on limiter strap is not enough for full transfer. Is there an update for a longer strap? I would figure 144 studs and 1" and 1/4 paddle should lift front ski's up when accelerating out of the bucket.

something isn't right you should be able to carry the ski's.

If you don't have the TRACTION, then it doesn't matter where things are set, it still won't go. You might need a longer track or better conditions.
