HERCULES TERRA TRAC T/G MAX

0

The Terra Trac T/G Max is for the pickup truck owner who occasionally wants grip for playing in the mud but also rides the pavement on a regular basis.

The commercial grade tire compound is super-tough with a cut and chip compound built into it so that the sidewall and tread doesn’t cut and chip like some off-road M/T tires have been known to do.

The T/G Max’s aggressive appearance gives your truck that tough look but doesn’t sacrifice on-road ride quality, handling, noise or traction. These tires are going to get the tough jobs done but they are also going to provide that desired ride for everyday use on the road – smooth and quiet.

Over the years, the DIRT TRAX crew has ridden on many varieties of A/T and M/T tires and the Hercules Terra Trac T/G Max tires have proven to be “exceptionally quiet”.

These tires are especially great for work sites or wherever you’re going to be abusing your tires day in and day out.

“The Terra Trac T/G Max is a very civilized tire that can go out and do more”. – Luke Lester

Can-Am Raises Money for Hunting Habitat Conservation

0

Can-Am Off-Road, alongside South Dakota Game, Fish & Parks, R&R Pheasant Hunting, and the Second Century Habitat Fund, have raised $500,000 to benefit conservation efforts and support pheasant habitats across the state.

The custom “Ultimate Upland Game Hunting Vehicle” was built and donated by Can-Am Off-Road, and then raffled off to a lucky winner at this past weekend’s annual South Dakota Governor’s Pheasant Hunt.

All proceed from the raffle benefit the Second Century Habitat Fund, a nonprofit 501 c3 entity that works to educate landowners on the importance of grassland to improve pheasant habitat in South Dakota. Can-Am is committed to being good stewards of the land and ensuring the longevity of this amazing way of life, and thus, it was a perfect match.

This custom 2021 Can-Am Defender Max Limited was built and outfitted with input from R&R Pheasant Hunting and Can-Am. Each accessory was chosen to help the upland game hunter out in the field while still maximizing the vehicleÂ’s design to be an ultimate tool for both work and play. This Can-Am Defender is as at home flushing birds as it is working the farm or having fun and creating memories with friends and family.

In addition to the Defender Max Limited’s 82hp/69lb-ft Rotax 976cc engine, 2,500lb towing capacity and fully enclosed cab featuring auto-heating and air-conditioning, the vehicle features a complete overhead audio system, Can-Am LinQ Tool and Gun Holder, Can-Am Adventure Roof Rack, a custom bed-box with sliding drawers, 32″ tires with matching wheels, custom powder coating, custom wrap and more. It has an estimated value of $50,000 after all the accessories and custom work was completed.

We would like to congratulate Stephan M. from Rapid City, South Dakota, whose name was drawn as the winner during the South Dakota Governor’s Pheasant Hunt this past weekend. Enjoy your new ride, Stephan!

DIRT TRAX TV 2021 – FULL Episode 8

World Champion figure skater and Olympic Silver Medalist for Canada Elvis Stojko and Dean McDermott who is known for his role as Host of Chopped Canada joined AJ and Luke for a day of riding the trails in Ontario Canada. Not only are both guys are die-hard Motorhead enthusiast and fans of the show, they’re just awesome guys; really friendly and outgoing so we immediately hit it off. Elvis brought his Can-Am Maverick X3 DS Turbo RR and Dean’s RZR XP1000 and we hit a variety of trails and conditions to put these vehicles to the test. Elvis’ Maverick X3 is outfitted with a 2:1 steering quickener, which give you twice the output at the wheels over the same input out of the stock steering and makes the Maverick handle like a go-cart. To further aide the front rack on his X3 Elvis also added a Hess Rack support to improve bump steer and eliminate play in the steering wheel and opted for the Hess quick release steering wheel hub and one of the multiple Hess steering wheels they offer online to get the wheel right where he likes it.

Portable Gas-Powered Winch

0

Portable Winch Co., a Canadian Company, sent the Dirt Trax crew a gas-powered winch to put to use and we’ve been impressed with the overall quality and power, as well as how many different jobs this winch has been able to conquer for us.

Portable Winch Co., distributed by KIMPEX, has an entire line-up of winches in various sizes and configurations to suit your needs.

The forestry industry is in love with these portable gas winches because sometimes vehicle-mounted winches just don’t have quite enough oomph to pull extremely heavy loads or they canÂ’t quite reach the object you’re trying to pull.

We could see these being useful for hunters who need to pull out big game, farmers who need to tow heavy equipment or anyone who uses their off-road vehicle for getting work done around their property, like us.

You can find out more about these impressive winches from Portable Winch Co. in an upcoming TRAIL TECH segment on DIRT TRAX.

Visit portablewinch.ca for more information on this product.
