Hello, I'm looking for the treads and tread hubs that come with the Robotics Invention System. Does anyone have these parts as DAT files, even rough ones? Thanks, Jonathan (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) It would be better (IMO) to format non-LDraw information as LDraw-style meta-commands, and keep everything in the DAT format. That gives the file the widest transportability between programs. Steve (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad.dev)

I noticed that 8520 has (8440)-race-car-style tires as feet. The wheels are blurred in all box and catalog pictures, such that one can (intentionally?) not see whether the wheels are the old-shape metallized wheels as in the yellow 1999 racer, or (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.technic)

I don't think that is available yet. And, apparently that picture was not supposed to debut so soon, as we've been told, and they would prefer we didn't discuss it.
