Convert 3 inch track to 2.6 or 2.75

[TRS]

The 2023 Lynx and Doo track have a different paddle design. It’ll be interesting which holds up better. Both were to be redesigned for 2023 over the 2022 tracks.

Hopefully changed for the better . I ordered one yesterday

The reason for the slots in the track are to let air/snow pass through and this can greatly reduce drag as the compression at the front of the tunnel is the problem. Especailly if there is little track to tunnel clearance.

The new camso 300lx is an option also.

Nearly identical track design.

$1065 to buy a 155 16 wide track with short rods 3.5" pitch.

Tracksusa cut to width for $100

What’s the weight of that track at 15” wide?

What’s the weight of that track at 15” wide?

Reset for strap weight already.

47.8 pounds.

I was going to cut my 16” wide doo track down, but may just get the Lynx track instead

Only .5 lb more than my 2022 Series 6 155x2.6. Pretty good for a 3” paddle and not having center cut outs.

Are you using 6-tooth or 7-tooth 3.5” pitch drivers?

Oem 6 tooth poo extroverts.

Same diameter as 7 tooth 3” pitch.

The Series 8 155x2.75 should be about 41 lbs. What made you go for the heavier 3” track?

My series 6 is still brand new. Temping to sell it and run the 3” track.

My sled currently has a 165 series 8 2.75.
I really dislike the thing.

Series 8 track folds over and spins on the surface of everything like an old series 4 2.4 track.

The series 6 is a decent track on n/a 800/850 power. They don’t hold up to boost well.

I wanted a stiffer track.
165 300lx is backorder until January.

The 155 300lx width cut shipped out in 3 days. ?

The matryx patriot boost has a much further forward Center of gravity than the axys sleds. (Axys needs the 160+ for steep technical terrain even on 5# boost)

So I’m going to run a 155 for the first time since 2011.

Anyone know where the Lynx track is manufactured?
Tag says “Made in USA”

It’s made by Camso . I assume it’s the plant in Plattsburgh NY.

The doo track works very good on the boost, ran it last year and used the stock drivers.

 

[shattuck]

These Doo tracks are new so hopefully they work even better then last years.
Riding with skidoo guys a lot in Whistler and Washington “cascade concrete” I always thought the Doo track worked better then any of the Polaris tracks

Anyone cut down series7 3" track?

Anyone cut down series7 3" track?

Yes, and it performs better.

 

[Ultrasauras]

Tony what did you cut it down to?

 

[TRS]

I took .200” off the lug.

Fortunately or unfortunately, it does in coastal snow. Idaho/Montana, it’s a toss up.

What tool did you use to trim the lugs Tony?
