Our robot this year could pull a lot. (don't remember how much though) We had 4 wheels with this kind of elevator belt that has a lot of grip. Personally, tracks weigh more and are harder and more $$ to make. But if you can have the weight, $$, and time then sure, use tracks.

PS i included a pic of our fancy wheels w/ the tread.
