Re: [FTC]: New Tetrix Parts
This is not a facetious question; I know of an FTC team that's actually looking for the answer to this.
Are the new tank treads close enough to the Vex tank treads in size, shape, etc. that they can use the Vex tank tread links in their place? I think the rules permit "duplicates" like that. They're looking to save a little bit of cash for a particular feature and want to only buy the sprockets, and they look similar enough that I figure it's worth asking, but since I / they don't have any new tread material in hand they can't really compare the two.
