1" track for hard pack racing

[74Nitro]

1" fully clipped 2.52 hacksaw non-quiet +5mph vs stock 1.25 Ripsaw. I like it better in most conditions and glad I switched.

+5 by GPS?

+5 by GPS?

yes on my phone. D&D told me about the advantages of the 2.52 years ago as well as the lower lug. Definitely hurts the hole shot though

Mix in some chisels with the carbide studs also

I run 216 (4 per bar) fastrac stainless with plastic backers and aluminum nuts (super light, durable, and no rust ever) for strictly trail running. Not looking to be fastest on the lake or win drags. Just gool 'ol high speed UP running...

chisels wont make it but a few miles on the trails.. Assuming your saying race day on the lake?

Short lug, long studs works well for hardpack. Look at the holeshot @Trailleader gets with his track/stud set-up. I can't say it's the most trail friendly, but it works.

I never would have thought this but after seeing it on some sled runs @ bents im convinced. Not sure I would go this route for every day trail riding but. Lesser amount of studs that are longer for better hook and better top end with LESS rotating mass.. Going to give this theory a try

You would be very surprised how they last when mixed in

The angled backers are an advantage as well. Tough to beat a holeshot in a short distance.

Also very easy to touch up with a small grinder

Maybe so.. I don't run any studs on a trail that are not carbide tipped.

I have a brand new take off from a 2023 SRX if anyone is interested.. $450 plus the ride... I live in MN, so could pick up if wanted..

Have 2 in double backer every other row in mine. Yea they wear worse than the triggers but they aren’t as bad as you would imagine. And after a horrific season and a half in upstate ny I think they did well. All 1.63” in 1.25 track

This is the ad. It appears to be a rip2 fully clipped.

My riding buddy has that exact track on his 17RTX-LE (129"). He's had it on for 2 seasons now and it is a RipII with a 1" lug.
I thought this was what yamacat had put on some of their SRX's?

What drivers do you run with that track? is that a 136"

 

[NYTurbo]

Yes 136. Need 10 or 11 tooth drivers. I prefer 10 tooth for trail riding
