Thanks for all of the info Chris. I'm not against casting them in resin, but I too was worried about how long they would hold up. My first choice would be metal for realism, durability, and the "coolness factor", but everywhere that I've looked online, the metal was so expensive that I think the tracks would cost too much to build. I have no idea how much resin a set of tracks would requite, but if I'm looking at several hundred dollars in resin, that starts to even the playing field with metal track :-/ If I do go the casting route, I'll be sure to bug you for help though! -Don -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
