My 05 RX1 had 2300 miles on it an the track lost about 20 lugs on the right outside and ripped through on one area. Track was studded down the center 144 woody's with single and double backs.
Replaced with brand new RipSaw and studded the same way, 1000 miles and it rips right across the track and ends up laying flat on the trail 40 yards behind me?
What is up with this?
Anyone having similar issues?

It's "Rippin" for your names sake
Only kiddin! That's too bad, I have almost 8000 miles on my Ripsaw on my Warrior and it has minimal damage! I have no studs.

Yea Im having a Ripsaw issue right now as well. Brand new and about 700 miles on it. It threw a clip and ripped up pretty bad on the right side. No warranty if studded. I also heard that the new Apexs are having track problems as well......................Cubby

Ripsaw blows, but so do ALL tracks. Too much power + too small a track = bad combination. Thats one of the many reasons I stretched out to 144".

IMO the Ripsaw is a poor track choice, them little nubs work good when they are new, but fly off with any sort of aggressive riding.
Running a Cat 136" SnoPro 1.375 Strait Lug paddle with good results (and is cheaper than the Ripsaw, and is lighter, and hooks up bettter!)

Got 2K miles on origonal 04 Ripsaw and almost 3K on a new Ice Ripper. Not a problem with either track & I pound the Heck out of them. No studs in the first track = no rips tears or lost lugs. All little studs in the Ice Ripper are still in there, no rips tears or lost lugs.
