how much better are long tracks compared to shorts. how do they ride and handle?

I ride a powder special and ocassionally my husband lets me ride his mountain cat. Compared to his ZR 121 there is not comparison. The long track is great on the trail as well as the deep snow.

i would ride a 121 on the trail and a larger track only off the trail

I have both a 121 and a 144 and the 144 is a pleasure on and off the trail. All my sleds have 1 1/4" lugs. I need much less track speed w/ the 144 to go thru deep powder. Go long and you'll not regret it.

i live in the U.P. and have always run a short track. i can run anywere i want with a short track. that being said i think a 136in ZR900 efi the perfect sled in the U.P. Ive riddin mountain cat 800's 151 inch sleds and its way overkill for the U.P. unless your highmarking in the mountains plus they handle like crap on the trails and chew the Sh*t out of it.
