Got to be better than the rocket 2.25 PC coming down hill. Just one middle paddle in the entire track. Maybe they did this instead of two in a row on one side for the length they needed to make it.

Track length needs to be divisible by an even number to maintain the appropriate pattern. 153÷3=51, 162÷3=54 the 162 should not have the odd middle padle. Cat should have a 150 or 156 so we wouldn't have the goofy track.

You mean an odd number then right?

No, even number.
3in pitch x even number will keep the staggered pattern. Multiplied by an odd number will create a goofy track like cat has had with all 153's. Past powerclaws have two paddles next to each other instead of putting one paddle in the middle.

You said divisible by an even pattern 153 divided by 3, and that threw me off. What your saying now makes perfect sense. God damn I want the new PC!!
