Thinking of maybe running a different track next season - camso 9115m 3"x174"x16" weighs 72lbs 2 ply - camso 9334m 2.8"x174"x"15" weighs 49lbs 1 ply - wondering if the 1ply track is tuff enuff with the turbo
Anyone tried the conquer 280?

It blows. Stay far away. A friend put one on and took it off after 1 ride. It’s a trencher.

Thought of changing drivers to 3.5" and try the 175" Doo track - but every gen4 track I see is missing lugs - then I thought maybe the 3.2" track mainly because it's lighter than the stock track

Yes. ****ing junk.
Had one on a 12PSI redline kitted m8 and it folded over like a noodle.
And wasn't very durable.

Thx - I'm thinking with the turbo it needs to be 2 ply - really wanted to try to shed track weight but I'm thinking I might be stuck with stock t3 track for durability

Go with the X3, I don't know anyone that's overly impressed with the Conquer 280.
I wonder what Maxwell would have to say about a 15" wide track being put on a 16" skidoo because of the 16" superior flotation? lol

I know right lol - the 15" is so much lighter tho - I'm not getting any younger - I think just the 174" length of the track alone is more than enough floatation

In forward position it's a trenching pos, turn it backwards and it works really well. Lightest and most flexible track I have ever handled.

Did you try one?

Yeah I have one on my sled. I haven't had it long enough to speak for longevity, but performance wise I'm happy with it now that it's in the reverse position.

Posted this photo before and I’ll post it again. Yes I hit a cut off tree that was about 2.5 inch in diameter, yes I was full pin, yes I was boosting 7 pounds. However I have hit worse with more boost with the x3 and it never blew out of the back of my sled.
$620 to get the sled off the mountain.
New x3 $1200
Ripped 280 $1250
It was a expensive trial to have a track that was ok. Ppl who say the 280 works well bought it and are now stuck with it. Just get the x3. It’s heavier but some places weight reduction is not worth it.

that ripped track looks identical to the one that tore in our group

Wow - never seen that pic b4 - that's garbage - I'm leaning more towards the 3.2" track (57 lbs) now because it's even lighter than the stock T3 track - I'm thinking with it being a 174 the 15" wide won't be the end of the world - maybe find a good deal on one next fall - will also be stuck with the 3.2 even if it's terrible - I've heard people talk about the paddles being so tight by the heat exchanger that it packs the snow in there - I'm thinking that 8-10lbs boost should help with that issue

I would like to try a 3.2. If it’s to soft I would cut ever second lug down to 2.9ish.

That's what I was thinking too - a guy could even just cut the the little fingers on the end of the paddles like the stock T3 one

If you can find a good deal on a powerclaw they are one of the best tracks available IMO.

With my dirty banana being a 174" the track options are fairly limited - one of these 3 tracks 
or just keep rocking the stock T3 track - the centre port holes and the one ply has me paranoid with runnin the boost tho - I do have an antistab kit on it
