The Axys does trench more compared to the Pro Ride, I haven't had any negatives with a sittfer FTS though.

I find the sled lifts and goes foward thus leaves a trench behind, but i chalk that up to the light weight drive system that spools up really fast. Iv had a few people tell me that i leave trenches, i dont do it intensionaly, i chop the throttle alot when im in the trees, perhaps i need another technique lol.

Do you find you trench more than a powerclaw? Those cats leave some deep trenches!

I agree with you, cause I felt the bottom end was lazy, not no more, my sled with my current clutching is very snappy now, I can now launch it off mogals at low speeds unlike when it had stock weights. I also ran the mtxs in my 16 155, so I guess im used to how they feel. I would like to try a stk setup back to back vs mine just to see the diff.
last week i went head to head vs a 164 alpha and a 850 164 doo, we each started from the start of the slope, no run at it, both the doo and alpha climbed about the same height 3/4 way up, my 850 blew over the top like nothing, Im contrubuiting some of this to my clutching,
