Any body know which tracks are better the challenger or finger or powderclaw? I need to buy a 144x15x2 inch track. thanks

depends what you ride in?

i will be going to cooke city but live in ND but don't ride trails

Finger is no good in powder but is unbeatable on hard pack. The pc is great in pow but has poor brakes. The camo ext and chall is best all around.

i have the switchback assault do you think the challenger extreme 2.5 lug or the challenger 2 inch would be a better track

The Challenger 2" 146 would be my choice on that sled... I assume you are talking about a 2011 Assault 800 SwitchBack??

You will need new drivers to run this track ... (true with the finger and PC track as well)

The PC is aval in 141, 153 or 162" lenghts.

The Challenger is avail in many other lengths as well.

IMO... the Finger is not a good choice for pow riding.

The 2.5 is a pretty extreme track. Doesnt do well on trails or real hard snow. If you do and ditch riding or lake runs the 2 in is better. 2.5 doesnt love hi mph runs either. If you are always in pow , the 2.5 is great.

just don't buy a finger track. you wont be disappointed with the way a paddle will hook up in ND buddy. the sled has more than enough power to satisfy you in the flatland. Put the challenger on and give 'er!

Ok thats what i will do thanks for the advice

Any one put a power claw on there switch back 144 yet? if so what length driver and extensions? Or not worth it just stick to challenger 2 inch?

I have a 153 powerclaw on my RMK 800. It grabs surprisingly well and is very impressive in the powder. Good luck getting a 141 on the 146 rails though. The 153 is super tight in the 155 rails. Your best bet would probably be the Camo. It should be comparable in weight to the Assault track. I chose the PC because it was 10 lbs lighter than the CE
