Explain to me the benefits? Im not understanding why you close them off, I thought it was a weight saving thing?
Yeah whats up with that......last year everybody was burning holes in their tracks and now your supposed to plug them??
better flotation
The 2011 Doo's have non-ported tracks.....go figure!
Since when has Ski-doo been leading the pack?
since the revs....Since when has Ski-doo been leading the pack?
Well, IMHO, everybody should buy themselves a special Xmas present! I ordered Track Port Plugs from Mountain Magic Sports and installed them today.
With the air riveter, installation was a breeze; only a 2 Corona job!
what was the cost for track port plugs
I tested it last night and it was soooo much better in the deep......just saying
You know what's gonna happen now? There gonna stop making holes in snowshoes. Man your track is spining so fast it doesn't matter. It was a matter of saving money in the manufacturing plant and was a great sales gimmick.:d:d
When in the trees or when stopping and starting....basically the only time I struggle....XP track holes are way too big. I agree with the 1.25 holes and only two holes , not three , down the middle. Porting to me just relieves track tension allowing the track to turn free-er = less power needed to rotate the track. Dinoagreed. at 60 - 80 kph track speed there is no way the snow has any chance to get past the lugs and through the track. only time i can see non ported tracks having a viable benefit it when in the trees with little or no track spin, or when stopping and starting...
