I am going to put a new track on my 07 RTX for fast trail riding. Any suggestions? Studded or unstudded?

Go with the ripsaw and put 144 studs down the middle.

I really like the Cobra on my RTX with double/single stud pattern up the middle. The Cobra has superior traction over the Ripsaw.

Agree I have had teh predator with 144 studs, the ripsaw with 144 studs, the hacksaw with 196 studs, and the cobra with 144 studs.
My favorite two are the cobra and predator(now called carve)
The cobra has better braking then the predator, the predator has better hard pack traction.
The rip saw was junk the hacksaw was just not enough track for my 250hp sled.
Either wasy 144 studs up the middle is my preferance.

I bought my Predator the middle of april, from Tracks USA, 339.00, 20.00 shipping, had it in 2 days. Its the best price out there, for that track.

Yes for the price the predator is hard to beat that track rules (the 1.25" one). I loved mine just happebn to get a great deal on a cobra with studs that was barely used.

The predator is also much better off trail IMO, it's a very though track that will take a beating.

Thats why I bought it, and, yes I got the 11/4", fully clipped, and I installed 144 gold diggers up the middle.
Thanks for the input! I will call about a Predator on Monday!
