try to fill my track up whit nomal woodys studs carbide of course it grabs but it aint grabing enough i leave a trench for about 75ft of the track is chisel the way to go for ice races only this is not a trail machine

thanks

hey it looks like those picks are smaller then the lugs, How old are they, you got more then enough for racing, it looks like you just need to replace the ones you got.

most of these are new and stick out quiet a bit but its not enough what should i go with 1.075 is what i have something telling me chiselis the way to go they look really agressive what do u think

and yes i no i need smaller size lug on this track but this is what i have to work whit right now

240 picks should be plenty, If you are running a 1 inch track go with 1.175 to 1.25 pick. If you have a 1.25 track go with a 1.375 pick. you want 1/8 to 3/8 an inch over lug hieght for good penetration. I would stay away from chisels if you even come close to roads or trails they just flat out won't make it. also they run the t-nuts for easy replacement of the pick. What a pain they are to install.

It sounds to me that you need more weight transfer. Try removeing the rear sissor stops or loosening the front limiter strap. that should help. Alot can be gain from setting up the suspension for racing. Just make sure the front end isn't getting to high though, you only want the skis to come up about 6inches to 1 foot, any more and your track isn't making full contact. If the sled is a straight out drag sled and it only runs on the lake or track. Get the speed track with 1/2 inch lugs and put 260 1" Roetin daggers in it, they are cheap sharp and once the t-nuts are in, they are fast to replace.

Try to look into more weight transfer first. Then make sure you are getting the penetration you need. 240 picks should be plenty for playing around on the lake or fields.

i get what yer saying my stoppers have being out for ever and my front strap is at its loosser hole
it dosent come up that much weight tranfer in this area is good i no the studs could be longer but i put what i ad

studs need to be longer for sure but have to meet race specifecation

thanks for yer reply
