Should I change from my challenger 162 to the power claw?

I have an 06 M7 with a challenger 162. I don't have the money to buy a new sled which is what I would love to do, but do have enough money to do some slight upgrades. I have changed the gearing, clutching, a few light weight components. I was wondering if anyone has switched to the power claw or if you have it and it would be worth the money to switch over. Thanks

I have not had a, or ridden a sled with a PC track, but I was VERY happy with my CH-EX, happy enough I decided to go through the cost and hassle of a D&R on my D8 to clear the CH-EX track. I love the CH-EX for the area we ride in mostly.

good luck!

While I may be wrong I think he is talking about switching from a standard Cat Challenger (not the CE) to a Power Claw. I did that last year on my '05 M7 and it was worth it. To me it seemed like the PC has the ability to find traction after it started to lose it, while the challenger once it started losing traction, it would never get it back. Maybe a goofy description but don't know how else to put it.

Well thanks everyone for your input. And I have heard both so many times power claw, powder claw, I don't know. Anyway, I have heard nothing but awesome things about this track. Next question, where can I get a good deal on one?
