Congrats!!!!!! Tracking up your ride opens a whole new world. I put over 400 miles on my 700 X2 last spring. I can't wait for Ol' man winter to bless me with a few feet of the white stuff so I can leave the trackless riders behind.
Your 800 will have more than enough spunk to take those tracks wherever you point them.
Here's a bit of advice though; Realize that the back tracks are fixed firmly to the frame, ie. they do not pivot front to rear. When backing down a slope directly onto a flat surface, ie cut bank -> road, you will find that the rear of the tracks will dig into the flat surface if it is not firmly packed. The best bet is to keep a good winch point available if you are not sure you can make the climb.

That's a fair amount less than I expected! Those tracks would certainly open up a lot of snowmobile trails in VT. Being poor stinks.
