My 2019 SRX Sidewinder w/Turbo Dynamics tune and other mods, runs 141 mph radar on ice. I’m running 1” of track deflection at 17lbs.
Can others here tell me what I should be running for track deflection on a sled running this speed on ice.
I know the track must be tighter than you would normally adjust for trail riding. But how tight is right for high speed ice runs?

Sounds like your doing just fine with where your at? Any way to test back back with different tensions? That would be ideal way to know. IMO you could go tighter. But I’m just a trail guy.

Thank You. I don’t know if it’s possible to over tighten a track. I’m sure at some point where rolling resistance is met that horsepower is being robbedIs it possible to over tighten the track ?

Very impressive, especially in 1000ft!!
Which tune?
Just curious, you mentioned 23 top gear, is that mated to stock 41 on bottom? No chain fits that ratio, how did you make that work?

The key to all those seeking better top end is to have both the primary and secondary clutches machines to allow the shift up to overdrive. Do this before making gearing changes.Very impressive, especially in 1000ft!!
