Tracker DH offering: the Fastrack?

Erik,
Have you had an opportunity to ride them?
If so, how do they compare to the Paris 180 trucks?
I rode the Paris 180 truck and was surprised how different they felt from my Grizzly trucks.
I was comparing them with stims and khiros in them.
Paris felt quicker turning and more "alive'.
The Grizzly felt a bit slower to turn but more linear and felt like they turned deeper.
The Paris trucks seem to be a cleaner pour than a Grizzly.
I love my Grizzlies but they are a bit sloppy compared to the Paris or a Holey for instance.
I have been able to bend the surface where the bushings sit in the Grizzlies..it is no longer flat.
I could not say which I would rather ride until more hours were put on them in comparison but the sloppy pivot pin and the bending in the bushing surface in the Grizzly has me looking at the Trackers, Bennetts and Paris..
And where the hell is Bennett with theirs?

Maybe my eyes are tricking me, but it appears that the Fastracks have the typical bent pivot of a Tracker.
I'm curious as to how that will work with this style of truck.

You know, I was thinking the same thing.

It could just be the plate though.. shrug.

For all-around use, the Paris 180 is going to be the truck to beat.

Just wondering, with all these great new trucks coming out, will you stop stocking Randals? I mean, one of the new trucks has to be able to kill them.

If they don't go broke while we all wait for it...

Do paris hangers work with randal plates? I'd like to get some paris 180s that are 35*.

Sooo... where are these trucks?

EBasil · 08-21-2007, 05:54 PM

They're in Oceanside.

Yep, they're chillin' on the beach with Fyre and liquid.

Has tracker suddenly gone under or something?
The ad on their site says summer '07, we're almost into 08 now. Any updates from those of you in the area?

Whaddup fellow members.! ! I called Tracker yesterday to ask about the availibility of the FastTracks and the person who answered stated that there were still some bugs to "work out" and they're JUST NOW testing the prototypes OF the "reworked" version - so uhhhh, he said in about 2-3 months or maybe quicker - depending on the test runs....hope this might help (SMILE).

2-3 moths? What happened to summer 07?
