Hey, Travis! The tractor was even more impressive first-hand at Indy. Appreicate your time discussing the second-generation driveline with the gearmotors. Really looks great. Have you resolved possible track slippage on the drive wheels? You were considering tape or something to improve friction.

Travis, I remembered you said something about black rubber bands for traction...what about o-rings or spraying the wheels with bed-liner or similar product?
I need to get going on my "C" model!!!! Ben |
