Local guy on here under the name Robbie has a 174x3" under his mostly stock xp and says it works great! The big thing around here isn't track speed, but having a big enough track to climb out of the hole you dig! So many trees and almost no big open areas to ride, and combined with the descent dumps of pow we get, it can really test a track. Not saying track speed isn't important, just saying that the kind of riding we do isn't just climbing the Monster, it's almostly all boondocking. I have also seen pretty good results out of a Maverick, sucks in the spring, but man, sure works good in the fluff!
