What track speed is everyone running?

[DRD]

I have a minty 96 Mach Z 780 I run around the house. I was spinning it up on the track stand today, you know tuning, and had it up to 138MPH. One of the 1.375" studs come out and killed my neighbours dog, true story.

I was playing with gearing, I normally run 21/43 for the snappy pull on the river. Encouraged by LHF's posting about speed, I thought outside the box. I put the 43 on the top and the 21 on the bottom. Instant 130MPH+ track speed. Only problem is I have to get my son to drive it since it takes 2 miles to get to speed with my fat ass on it.

I was doing 85 mph on a light cruise setting in the mountains the other day (about 5,300 ft) and my buddy passed me, said he had it to 107 mph but then he started worrying about paddles coming off!

fawk were we moving, I just prayed nothing was gonna jump from the bush.

Find a push car, like the guys do in Bonneville. Gets you up to speed quicker. Something with torque. There was a thread on here about it somewhere......

Well back in the day when I used to hill climb against wedges up on dixon glacier who cared about track speed. Means jack squat. Getting a few feet higher was all that counted. If I coulnt out climb the goofy looking wedgies I would just ramp off a nice cornice and watch the competition just sit there looking like weenies

I'll give it another go this weekend......

Do you have a speedometer to tell how fast the wedge will go? Would it be better to spin a 156 2 1/4" track at 110 kph or a 156 3" at 75 kph. Which one will take you up the hill farther in powder?

The 2 1/4 spinning at 110 would move more snow.

The 2 1/4 spinning at 110 would move more snow.

but does that get one more traction??? hmmmmmmm........

 

[Jesse_01]

Hmm well the 3" will have more traction at lower speeds. But at a certain speed wouldn't the 3" flex more than the 2.25. So at a higher speed you may have more traction with the 2.25. Lol

As much as I can tell everyone that responded has ZERO clue.
