3.5 pitch track on proclimb

madsledder · Jan 6, 2019

Keep thinking this would be a good mod. Been thinking a cut down 154 3.5 pitch doo track would work good. Any one do anything similar
? If so how did it work? I need a new track for my m8 so thought I'd just put the 3" off my proclimb on it. And look for a 3.5 pitch 3" to put on the 17 mtn cat. Really like the new power claw but don't want the alpha skid or the mono rail. Just think the longer pith would fill the paddle better and of course weigh less.

I keep thinking about taking an alpha track and punching it and clipping it to fit a twin rail and changing my drivers

The track is absolutely an animal in deep snow.
Buy the Alpha Track, punch some holes and clip each paddle...
Drivers too.

I don't know if it is as much the Alpha track, or the track in combination with the monorail allowing the track to flex and contour to the snow under it that gives so much more traction.

doo it, i am interested to hear.
seems like the only downfall to the large two-paddle tracks (like alpha, PC, conquer) is they down hill a little faster. or has the alpha magically cured this trait?

I am wandering the same about the down hill. I was also hoping some one else would do the r&d to see if it is worth it. If I can find a good 154 doo track to rip down I might.

id be curious to see how a punched and clipped alpha track would do on a two railer, if anyone wants to sponsor me ill gladly be the guinea pig.

What would be the benefit to this track over other 3” power claw track.

About 20% higher on the hill.

I'd say mostly the 3.5" pitch allowing a bigger bite of snow between each paddle. Same reason I believe cutting the extra fingers off the 2.6" pclaw makes such a big difference.

That is kinda cool. Wander how it's going to work.

Powerclaw future

Are we to see a 4" paddle with 4" pitch as the track wars progress?

Ha only thing really that limits the rider and sled now is how deep the snow which has to be near 4 feet plus. Less than that factory sleds can get around pretty great. Probably see bigger engines or forced induction before 4 inch tracks.

Ya all the brands go so good right outa the box. Would love to see a 900 or bigger factory.
