So, any reason to go with the cut down 9443 over the 15 wide 9471?

9433 is clipped every 3rd and flex edge, 9471 is clipped every window

I wonder if the 9471m is better/worse than the new freeride track, its a little bit cheaper from what i see

I don't have to newer style 300LX, but the previous style worked great yesterday, definitely feels like it lifts my 165 better. I couldn't go too crazy because I am on a fresh top to bottom engine rebuild but I like this track. Snow was a mix of semi wet, sugar and crusts and not very deep...

Got another ride in on Sunday, this time in some spots where the snow got blown into. Was a bit firmer and more setup than fresh but it was around 4ft deep with a not very dense crust about 12 inches down. Noticeable improvement in lift over the 2.75. I was pulling around 8300rpm at 6200ft and my track speed was around 34-39mph from the few times I looked (might be a bit low?), generally when I was pulling the skis up. Definitely an improvement in the playful factor, I have about 65 miles on my rebuild now.

Huge improvement in playful factor. Sorry for the crap pics they're exported frames from videos. But the 300LX was the best purchase for my sled ever, way better than the 2.75 when it comes to getting that front end up. Rear shock 0 preload and all the way soft on clickers. Front shock I cranked like 1-1.5" of preload and clickers are all the way hard, 165 NA 850 Khaos. For the record, I don't even know if what I'm doing is proper for a reentry, I'm just playing around, still learning and just trying new things lol.

I swapped a new 300lx with the staggered center paddles onto my 23’ 155 boost that had the 2.75. The snow was 14-20” of fresh on top of a hard layer with sugar underneath


Huge improvement over the series 8. So much more grab and forward momentum. Feels like I added several lbs of boost. Almost too much grab for the snow I was in. It dropped my rpm about 200. Surprisingly it didn’t wheelie much more…just enough to make it playful.


There’s a 24’ 155 boost in our group with the 3.25. It has a very similar momentum and feel to my sled. Almost identical.

Definitely more fun than the stock track and well worth it.

Posting another vote for anyone thinking about putting this track on a boost.

Got a few miles with the 300lx in a few different conditions now. If you drive a boost how its been designed to be driven the 300lx is a huge improvement, this track seemed to climb, maneuver and just do everything better than the 2.75. I could see how a stop and go type rider might like the 2.75, but if your staying on the throttle and maintaining boost there's no comparison. As other have said, It does allow the sled to wheelie a touch more since it actually hooks up properly, but your moving forward at twice the speed as the 2.75 so I consider that a good thing.

I got it shipped from tracks USA to my door and on the sled in less than a week.
