Anyone remember off hand, max size they used or fit and are you measuring from the backside (inside)? of the track or the front.
Also what has anyone done for tunnel protectors?

Bob, I sent via email the whole Performance guide Yamaha put out for the Vmax in 1984. I will try to get Tyler to add it to the picture form.

Chuck, I got it but can not get it to open in either of 2 computers, simply says Fail to load, not sure why I deal with PDF's all the time

Thanks guys, project is on hold for 10 days thought I didn't have to be at Derby track till fri now have to be there tomorrow so will take SRV and Cat 6000 this trip
Track is new Camo, 1 in lug, has 200 some 1 1/2 studs in it. I'm sure those will be too long. not sure what will fit thats longer then that lug, but still fit.
First weekend at Eagle river is Vintage, maybe I'll find someone up there thats done something before.
Why is it always way below 0 for Derby races, next weekend looks warmer for late model weekend

from the inside surface to the top of the lugs, my track measures .92" the studs on the outside bands measure 1.3" roughly, also from the inside of the track to the tip of the stud... your mileage may vary (aka i accept no responsibility if you order studs too long or they hit haha)
