Even More New vex parts!!

On my second favorite website again (CD being 1st) and saw that vexlabs has 2 more new products!!

Tank Tread Upgrade Kit which looks to be awesome for conveyors and better traction in general

And now the bearing pop rivets are available to make assembling robots much quicker and easier.

Re: Even More New vex parts!!

The addition of the new tread links kit doesn't shock me in the least--these should be relatively more robust than the zip-tie-and-tank-tread elevators we saw in Half-Pipe Hustle and Hangin'-A-Round, which were nearly ubiquitous among teams. I'll be interested to see how the two stack up. (Art, where are you? )

Actually, I'm working on building a Vex robot for one of my current college courses that may benefit from this.
