I think we have Nathanael Kuipers to thank for the snowmobile and the new
track design.

Correction: he did the basic design for the snowmobile but someone else did
the track design- just in case anyone actually read my last post.

I did!What do you think of the new track design?..Me thinks the track will
slip too much off of the designed gear if not under tension..and when trying
to do a 3 point turn like a CAT does....maybe not..hmmmmmm.Look for some
photos late January on the latest MOC.Hope you have a great holiday there

The new tracks are awesome! It may be harder to place 1x flat plates on then to
make wide tracks, but they already apper to be 5 studs wide by themselves. The
teeth are closer to bicycle gear teeth (rounded teeth and vallies) so they may
intend to make chain links to go with them in the future. I will be happy when
TLC releases bigger gear wheels like those and sells the bulldozer links in bulk
on the net! But obviously that will be a while into the future.
