  • coming from someone that was in the army and drove tracked artillery pieces... no matter how tight the tracks are you will either break or detrack it if you turn sitting still like that more than like 45 degrees at a time and it gets even worse in sand or dirt because then you are pushing all the dirt/sand against the side of the tracks

  • Don't make it too tight when doing track tension because you will prematurely stretch out your track. Also constant high speed (heat) will stretch track over time too. This becomes a safety issue when ripping on it and you throw track. 2 cents from an US army tanker.

  • That brake setup thing is cool. I too thought it was just an open diff that braked proportionately to steering angle, but it's a fair bit more complicated than that - would love to hear Jackstand do a tech overview of that setup - he's good at explaining tech shit. Very cool buy. While I'm a bit partial to the OG one (the single seater tube chassis), this is like a snowcat if it was designed by vehicle enthusiasts, lol. Very cool, look forward to content with this.

  • Tank safety: Make sure you have an escape route before you run that in the swamp. You need to be able to get out of that if it rolls over and fills with water or catches fire. A hatch in the floor would be ideal. Whatever the escape plan is, practice it until you can get out quickly even when blindfolded.

  • I was in artillery in the Army, and I've thrown some tracks on M-109 howitzers plenty of times. Those tracks are in like 14" sections though. It was still a pain to replace those track sections, but I imagine it's a nightmare (and very expensive) to replace an entire single-band track just because one part of it is jacked up. Look into getting a sectional track!

    • @@korndogz69 I think one could make an rubber track that is split into sections. What i would wonder if the price tag would make it worth it, producing an long rubber track compared to segments that need embedded bushings to connect them. I know mainly about bandvagons tracked they are compared much slower but with them no one bothered to make segmented tracks either, they have the same style and they are build in series and run in many militaries around the world.

    • @@pouncepounce7417 My thought process was you could keep a stack of sections on hand and replace them as needed as opposed to replacing an entire track just because one piece of it tore, or had a large chunk of it missing. Making sectional tracks out of rubber has the obvious problem of withstanding the expanding and contracting forces. That would be introducing weakness and many more points of failure into the track. The ends where the sections are bolted together is where the most likely points of failure would be. Maybe if the rubber is thick enough, it can handle it?

(M1A1 Abrams, about $8,000,000) Military tanks may have no luxury at all, but the Ripsaw is basically a Pinto when looking at suspension and driving systems. Especially with the turning system on this thing.
