Thanx for the attention. I'm rather familiar with these screw track craft over the decades. Russia went for them the most of anywhere to cross tundra and other slush sections in terrible conditions nothing else could get through and carry a load that even air boats and hover craft couldn't, on scale to fit local economy.

Too dang slow heavy for Ms Peel and me, so plans for inline 3 wheels as wheelie bar, trailer wheel, corner drift preventer, mud flotation and idler for snow track. Also another double taker on top other Peel features to test sense of reality others are missing out on and me trying to catch up with those that have.



Throw yourself at the ground and miss!
