We had issues beyond belief. We were throwing treads all over the place. Most of the time we were snapping them rather than just having them fall off. This post discusses the issues a bit:

My the end of the season we had the belt trapped so it couldn't find a way to slide off. Unfortunately this really cut down our efficiency so our robot was slower than we hoped. Definitely not an ideal situation.
