Well first off, the treads would probably slide off because they're not secured too well....but ignoring that, i would guess that it would barely strafe, and skip around like popcorn popping. What i want to try is to individually wrap each roller with tread. Nobody steal my idea unless 461 doesn't do that in 2012
