Just to remind you that although the part was made by your sponsor and it might have been donated, you still have to have it in the B.O.M. and the materials that went into making the product acounted for in the overall cost of the robot. Although it was free, there was still some expence in making it and that has to be accounted for.

But those treads are quite nice, the smooth surface might not get as much traction as a ruffed up one though, in my opinion I would lightly take a file to it (a rough one) to give them a little more grip. I also love the use of 80-20, that stuff is soo awsome!
