its possible it seems like it may be kinda difficult but doable. you would need to find tracks that are the right size, probably off of a small scale dozer or something. then all it is is finding a way to mount them and figuring out how to get small wheels with small teeth type pieces coming off them. then you would be all set

I think matching the front and rear gear ratio would be your only problem. Either way, I don't think it would do so well on the rocks. I just have never really liked the tracked vehicles that much anyway though. Except.......did anyone here have the Fast trax (sp?) I had the red one I think. Man that thing was fun! |

it would probably take quite abit of custom machining for the basic structure that hold the shape of the tracks, but the driveline parts can be taken straight from a cheap 'hobby grade' RC tank, such as a Hen Long the wheel with the teeth is called the sprocket or drive wheel, and the other wheels that just roll the track are called road wheels |
