I have the new 2.5 Camo extreme track, so traction isn't the issue. The track helped the wheelie factor lol. To make it wheelie more, I've tried dropping the front skid mount it doesn't work well. The ski's are just an extra inch off the ground and it's less controllable on a steep hard side hill. The ski's don't bite enough. I have also tried tightening the front rear skid shock, and that just makes the rebound of the skid unbalanced. Same goes for softening up the rear shock. It just rebounds really goofy. I've always ran with the limiter straps all the way loose.
So...The only thing I haven't tried, that I've seen suggested only once, is tighten the limiter straps to the middle or even top hole. The individual claimed that it would change the attack angle of the track on the snow under hard acceleration and bring the front of the sled on top of the snow instead of treching down. I'll try it this weekend and see. It makes sense in a way, but my only concern is loosing traction doing a steep sidehill or downhill turn. One thing I've noticed with the cat's vs. my doos is that if you turn the cat over just before you drop down something steep on your side...you actually loose ALOT ot traction/footprint on the snow. I've gotten stuck on flat ground just laying the sled over to drop down something in a sidehill. Like over a windlip/drift. I'll try it and report back. My Brothers 2011 m was it the midldle hole the other day, and when we swapped I liked the way his handled the sidehills better.
