Hi all,

I have a chance to grab a new polaris take off camoplast 155x15x2.4 track from an '09 dragon at a great price.
I am wondering if anyone has used this track on their pro assault? I backcountry ride only and the competition track just isn't cutting it in the deep.

Is the '09 track the same track as the 5.1 series on the pro RMK?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Matt

I snowchecked an assault last year and got the comp track i hated it I switched to the 2.5 CE but I have a few buddys that have 2012 rmks and assaults with that Series 5.1 155"X 15"X 2.4 "its a good track. It was night and day defference from the competition track. I would buy it for sure.

I snowchecked my '12 Assault with the 5.1. Works like a champ.

How many paddles across is your track? The Polaris 5.1 has 4 paddles across. The Camoplast Challenger Extreme is 3 paddles across and is significantly better than the 5.1, but don't tell anybody. You also want a track that can bend, for powder and backcountry. Stiff and finger tracks are for trail and firm snow.

I switched the comp track out for the series 5.1 and it was a night and day difference! Way better flotation and a way lighter track which made for a quicker throttle response (less rotating mass)
