Check you owners manual. It should show how much sag your supposed to have in your track with x-lbs of force applied with a scale.

Depends if you have extrovert drivers .. if you do you can run it looser, giving you less resistance / more free power !

I got some extra drivers with a shaft for sale off my rev if you happen to have a 03.5 rev ! sell it cheap cheap cheap

I am wondering if the temp of the track has anything to do with it.... Normally we would adjust the track while the sled is in the shop right...??? Usually the sled is warm, thawed off and nice to work on... Which means the Track is warm and haspossibly expanded... We adjust the "warm" track.... Go sledding and by the time you get to your destination the track has cooled and "shrunk" am I correct in thinking that you should check and adjust your track when the sled is "cold"???

Run it as loose as possible without it ratcheting on the drivers.
