Track allignment AND TRACK QUESTION !!!!!

[08PhazerRTX]

Rather then make a new topic i thought id use my old one considering its still about my track !

My first question was about the alignment but i figured out this was just the shifting of the track back and forth a bit ( more noticeable on the 14" wide) .
but my next question is on the sides of the track it seems that the little "threads" i dont know what to call them , but there are some poking through ??

Is this normal where it is brand new and the track is being bet in and loosening up ? Anyone else have this problem ??

Thanks Peter !

It will always move a little from side to side while your riding, but I think it is more noticable on the phazer because the wheels are already closer to edge than a 15" wide track would be. the best thing to do is get the track off the ground (on a stand), start the sled and run the track a couple of times. If it doesn't come back to running fairly true, or gets worse, you will need to adjust the track tension.

Agree with cdsgraphic. Also I would recomend you to add the 4th wheel on the rear axel. Was a couple of guys that last year that ruined the track because it went completely out of allignment (sorry for bad english, but I dont know what you call this thing), and hit the track adjustment bolt, bolt slipped through a window in the track and ripped it apart.

yes 4 wheels is better than 3 is better than 2...
