SKS 146” Track Lugs Ripping on Backsides

I have a 2020 SKS 146” with 2.25” track and all of the lugs are ripping at the base on the backside of the lug. There is just 800 miles on the sled.
I can understand the front side being it is taking the load but this is odd to me.
I almost never have to reverse my sled. Have a drive in/out trailer.

Anyone have this happen before?IMG_7412.jpegIMG_7413.jpegIMG_7414.jpeg

I have and was told it was from excessive track heat. That was a deeper lug track. Guy I got it from ran the trails wfo.

Interesting. How long did it last?

Im not going to lie and say I’ve never run it WFO on a groomed trail once or twice.

Im just going to run this one until it starts chucking paddles.

Ive had plenty 2.25 and 2.5 tracks on doo’s and polaris sleds, this is the first time I’ve seen this.

I was prepping my sled and noticed the track was damn tight. I will warm it up and check it again.
Hasnt moved in a year come next week.
No snow here

That’s where deeper lugs start ripping when they’re flung off from excessive speed/heat.
