C3 PowerSports unveils new MAXTRAK 2.5

C3 PowerSports is proud to release our new Snow MX track, "MAXTRACK 2.5"

We have enjoyed riding our Timbersleds for the past few years, and thank the guys at TS for bringing us a great new sport! We all feel like kids again and are having a blast ripping up the hills, and playing in the trees like never before.

C3 PowerSports is working on helping grow the Snow MX sport to the next level with the introduction of a track designed for MX bikes.

We saw the need to build a lightweight track and help reduce the rotating mass of the track by 30% while increasing the depth of lug on the "MAXTRAK 2.5" to 2.5" in the centre paddle.

We also wanted to eliminate the square edge feeling of the track while riding up the harder packed trails. To accomplish a more natural tire like feeling, the 20" radius profile of the lugs, along with the flat fibreglass rods that are 10" wide allow the edges of the track to flex much more like a Ski-doo flex edge track.

Riders who have been riding this track for the past 40 days have had very positive comments, and can feel a noticeable difference.

Below is the link to the pictures and more info.

The track are in stock and ready to ship.

C3 PowerSports looks towards releasing many new products to all Snow MX enthusiasts here this year!

BRAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPP! BRAAAAAAPPPPP!

Sullcat, thanks for the business, and send us some feedback after you ride! We excited to hear.

M5, The standard 120" Challenger 2" track, 12.5" wide, weighs in at 34.5lbs. If we just take the math at 34.5/120 = .2875 lbs per inch x 137 =39.38lbs.

That math will get you close to the weight. Camoplast tracks vary by a pound or so per track.

Thanks for your post
C3 PowerSports.

Here is the scale at C3, and that baby is sensitive...lol

This is the 120" Maxtrax 2.5 on the scale at 28.0lbs with the nylon strap and clamp.
The good news is it is still 5 lbs lighter and 1/2" taller compared to the provided pic above.
We will re weigh our 120" 12.5" wide Challengers here and see how they compare also.

Either way nothing robs HP more than rotating mass, and nothing makes a guy happier than having a longer lug than his buddie.

M5, thanks for calling us out on that!

I was comparing the weight of the Challenger tracks we have which are the 2" with no punched holes in the centre at the 34.5lbs.

The track we have here is last years 120" with the holes punched on our scale was 33.5lbs at 120" ( see pic )

Our 120" Challenger 1.75" track came in at 31.9lbs ( see pic)

The TS guys are right, their current track the 2" Challenger, is lighter with the punched holes at 32lbs 14 oz. Though the one we have in the pic is 33.5 lbs but we within a 1/2 pound which makes sense as the tracks vary in production.

And we were running our tracks with the side track nubs trimmed off, and that made or track 27.1lbs. ( our first test one)

And we also have a customer who has punched holes in his track and claimed close to 2 lbs lighter there. This we have not tested yet, but he will in a week or so.

So we did the math rounded from 27lbs x 30% = 35.1lbs we are off a bit.
We we're also running our prototype track which was a bit lighter (27.1lbs). The tracks do vary within 1 pound of each other as they come off the line.

So you could take it and trim the nubs, drill holes and save an additional 2.5 lbs we will say until we verify for a total of 25.5lbs.

You are correct it is about 22% lighter even with the extra 1/2 of lug.

But if you trimmed away...
25.5 lbs x 30% = 32.5lbs ( which is achievable)

Our bikes benefit huge from the lighter tracks and the 1/2 taller lug.

Also of note.. the customers who are running the Maxtrax on the 2014 and down TS kits are having a tiny 3/16 grove worn in the track where the brake disk is touching on the centre paddle. But for some reason this is only happening on some guys kits, depending on how tight they run their track.

And if you run a primary gearing combo that uses all the adjustment in the TS chain tensioner ( or lots of it) you will wear a groove in the track also. But this is common on the Challenger 2" tracks also now in some combinations. It will not affect your performance, in fact it would make your track a bit lighter also.

We are all about saving weight on our products and freeing up HP in our drives. That all equals better performance. But we will not sacrifice strength for weight savings.

Appreciate your comments M5. Keep them coming!

Thanks again
C3 Powersports.
