Re: Tank Treads???

Breco felx makes custom timing belts you can use as tank treds.
I know a handful of teams have used them before but there pretty expensive.
Treds arnt the easiest way to go and i wouldnt recomend them for a rookie team but if you guys think you can do it then more power to you.

Re: Tank Treads???

I have seen it done by rookies but I dont think many people will recomend it. How is your design? I mean you have already designed it but you dont know specs/where to even buy it.

As a more important note, Brecoflex takes alot of time. If you are going tha route you better place an order soon.
