anyone thinking of putting tracks on for ski trail grooming ?or is anyone running tracks on any other brand that you drive not ride ? by the way this forum is very good for researching ,and the people on it seem to want to help .
Thanks

I saw one at the fair with tracks on it. Looker killer. I think I got a picture, I'll have to check.

Here how an RTV looks with tracks and other adds.

how much speed did you lose ? I was told that the tracks increase the torque of the machine . I want to run a RTV with tracks for the snow only, Matt tracks have a nice set up but they will void your warranty, if you add traction products to their tracks. I talked to a guy in Maine who is grooming with a ranger with Matt tracks,he says it works good until you have to climb a bank that has ice on it .we run beteen 175- 200 studs in our work sleds.I would like to see if the RTV would groom at 10-12mph, sure would be nice to drive in a cab vs riding a snowmobile .
Is Kubota going to void your warranty with the tracks on the RTV?
thanks
