Just finishing up my Fastrax D&R.... havent rode it yet obviously, but it turned out really nice.

It was a lot of work in some respects, but very simple to say the least. Came with the best set of instructions EVER!!!!!!!!!

I have the 7 tooth 3.0 with a Camo Extreme 2.5 and no issues so far. EW

Why not buy the new 2.86" pitch Challenger Extreme 2.5 from Camoplast and keep the stock drivers? The Camoplast track is even ported for the center driver if you are inclined to keep it in place. No clearance problems with this set up according to Camoplast and Tracks USA.

The 2.25 track is a very tight fit so a 2.5 will be way to tight...look at the black marks in the tunnel on last years dragons. Going from the 2.89 to the 3.0 pitch is not that much of a jump (and the 174 is only available in 3.0) and
running the 7 tooth (could) increase the chance of track stabbing and steepen attack so I have decided to go with fastrax d&r and go to the 8 tooth. The best of all worlds,better attack angle, less parabolic drag from not enough track to tunnel clearance and bigger drivers all for 340 bucks!!! Thanks all for the replies.....
