1999 Indy 500 Track Question - Snowmobile Forum: Your #1 Snowmobile Forum

Ive got a 1999 Polaris Indy 500. Track specs. 121" x 15" .82. What is the most height I can get for this sled. I need a new track. Have no idea what to look for. No deep snow, moslty trail and iced over lakes.

Any ideas of what track is best for this?

Same size Ripsaw track.

is .82 the highest paddle or clearance I have?

I know fellers who stuck 1 1/2" paddle tracks under their short tracks. I assume that they had to go to smaller drivers but I can't swear to it.

U should be able to go 1 1/4 without mods. Don't quote me but should fit

Keep in mind too that taller lugs also mean more rolling resistance [mass] and that will slow you down, particularly in the top end.

I have a 99 xcsp. Not positive on the comparison 99 Indy. I had to cut notches out of a 1.25 track to avoid from hitting the tunnel protectors underneath the tunnel. Looked like it was going to fit originally, but it didn't. I would go with the stock size unless you want to have to cut notches for clearance.

For your riding style a 1" ripsaw would be best. No mods needed
