Nothing against team Desert Storm but I think since this was in the past we all can discuss it civily. I have personally driven a few matches against that robot. It could not hold its gound against our four tire machine and its tracks often fell off. Perhaps those tracks are not quite the ones you are looking for.

Brecoflex does offer great products but I've heard they can take quite a while to get. Before you build yourself into a track system, you need a good argument for why wheels won't do the job. Tracks are heavier, harder to get, more expensive, harder to build, etc.

Re: Who's your supplier?

brecoflex did ours, but the expense almost makes it counterproductive....
