How many lugs?
All internal of the track vs. along the edge?
Any super fast trail runs lately?
Any tip damage like you hit something hard?
Like 3 that i can see, 2 on one side and 1 on the other.
all internal, barring the lugs actually torn off at random
Generally like 45 mph or less on trail, sometimes ill punch it and go a little faster, but always scratchers down and never for long.
Cant say ive hit anything hard enough to make note of tbh.

Likely track rods overheating. Looks like two 3" poos I ride with, started like that, both tracks delaminated by March in 6-12" strips. I know they were ran at 60, scratchers always down on the trail, 3" series 7 doesn't like 60 for very long, even in soft snow.

Yep, and my track separated shortly after I noticed that last year on the first ride out.

Well, looks like this thing is generally pretty toasted. Guess i cant complain about about 3500 miles, of 70% up riding and the last 30% out west. Then this last season was on boost at 5#, so its seen some use. Ive got a m67 on the way, read and hearf some good things about it from a few places so im gonna try and run it.
