Now if I can only get the suspension sorted, this thing will be ready for some movement on it's own. Oh, yeah. Need another battery since my batteries have sat so long while I was in Afghanistan that one of them is bad. Looking to go LiFePO4 though. I'm selling stuff on Ebay to generate the cash to buy one of those. Other than that I have all the parts to finish it. It's 1864 series Rexnord track. The guy wanted $80 box, but I offered $40 and it was $73 shipping from Canada. So they were on the expensive side, but like everyone has said...these tracks will outlive me. There is very little side to side movement and there will be less once they are connected as a full loop of track. The pads are actually removable.
Chris, I was thinking of just spraying or dipping them in Plasticote to give them a little more smooth surface grip. I surely don't want to drill holes in that many carbon steel pads to get rubber bolted to them. Don't think adhesives will stick very long.
