yes I was a stud runner for many years....then I learnt somtin.....as the lug heights grew and the computers aligned the lug patterns for maximum effects of physical properties and the HP grew and the dual carbides came on.....now you wont like this but its true....the lug height ratio drive train thing changed exponentially to the bad side when adding stud weights to a rotating mass....whew.....and due to a military study of tracked vehicles....it turns out that without studs is better take off...better stopping....better turning....higher HP to the ground...less drive train waste and more torque.....I dumped STUDS FOREVER.....my last studded sled was a VMAX.....never looked back and couldn't be happier.....you can run roads....not scar the driveway or warehouse concrete.....no unexpected 360s when WOT on a iffy surface.....no more rolling it over.....no more missing a turn due to push....I could go on and on.....lose the studs....get a brandy new track like a 1.375 ripsaw or a 1.7 cobra....those lug patterns are the best all around and the durameter of the rubber is spot on between hard and soft....these one other trick to make it work even better without studs but not gonna give that out just yet as there a several turbo guy that want a piece of this action that they doubt....they run studs...last sled that dragged me was a 900 skidont...against my 700....I got em....so now I have an 800....they got bigger sleds....think they can do it again.....I got news for em soon....LOL.....I am under 7 seconds now....ha...on shaved ice....no studs.......bam
