Nytro Avid drivers for power claw tracks??

[quadtrac]

I have an 08 nytro MTX that im putting a 162 power claw track on. Just was wondering if I will need to buy those Avid drivers that say they are made to work with these tracks? Right now I have a challenger from an 09 m8 with stock drivers and never had a problem. Also the sled has a stage 2 Ulmer turbo kit. Thanks

Your stock drivers will work with a powerclaw, but under boost I wouldn't trust them to last very long. Eventually they will spin on the shaft and you will have to upgrade.

Under boost, I would HIGHLY recommend the Avids. I rounded the stockers right off when boosted.

Ok so do I need to order the ones that say they are made to be used with the power claw? My track on there now has the little nubs on the outside and its worked just fine. Thanks

If I recally correctly you can order those ones, or shave off the nubs on the track. My memory is a little fuzzy at the moment.

Edit: I found what I was thinking of. You cut off every other outter nub with a power claw:

ok ya its just kinda weird that it looks the same as my challenger track on the sled right now having the little nubs on the inside

i would go with the regular avid drivers and cut the nubs off they are balanced better i have seen two broken drive shafts because of the new drivers that work with the ac tracks.

If you are gonna buy drivers anyway, talk to AVID they have drivers specifically for the the newer "nubbed" tracks.

Avids

I went through this last winter. I would go with the regular avids (not the power claw specific) for two reasons:
1. I had the PC specific ones flex and slip and could not make them work, may have been just a bad set but why chance it.
2. If you ever want to run a CE or other tracks (most) you can with these.

Once I switched back to the regular avids they worked perfect an dI could run my track loose, I just clipped the nubs and should have did it this way from day one.

My stock ones crapped out at 1700 km on boost, i would just swap them right away though.

Avids was good to deal with and would recommend their product, well worth it.

I picked up the same track this spring and I'm going to be clipping the nubs off like may others have.Like said above if you ever go to another track then your screwed.
