I would say a Ripsaw would be your best bet. I've never used one but i've heard nothing but good things about them for trail/ditch.
I need big jugs on my sled, cuz my girl doesn't.

^i believe you are correct on the track sizing. i would highly recomend the camoplast ripsaw or predator. i wasnt impressed with the ripsaw but damn near everyone else i talk to is.... maybe its just me and if you like the occasional off trail go with the predator it has more of a paddle style lug vs the broken up style lug on the ripsaw...if you dont want to spend quite as much cash then go with a kimpex shotgun or x force

if you ride off trail much you are better off with the predator track, much better hook up in the powder. The ripsaw is the best on trail, but not so good off trail.

I purchased a Ripsaw from tracksusa.com and then studded it on the XLT that I am selling...been very happy with it. Also, My 07 Skidoo Blizzard came with one w/o studs and hooks up extremely well. If you spend most of your time on trails you can not go wrong with this track.

i just recently bought the camoplast cobra. which apparently is better then the ripsaw because it wont rob the power that the ripsaw would. I bought the 1.325 cobra .. unfortunately havent had a chance to ride it due to lack of snow.. but i have heard nothing but good news about it.. including it being better then the rip saw

 new track agree with justgiver .... i purchased a cobra on everyone else's advice on how great they perform on trail and off. I havent ridden mine yet to say weather or not it needs to be studded but i am hoping not.

well the problem with buying a 1.25 to 1.325 lug height track is then you need to do some fabricating with the clearance of the studs underneath the tunnel. To get the stud penetration i would need i would need to put a inch and half stud underneath which 1 ads lots of weight and 2 would no where near fit under my tunnel.
