The Tamiya rubber tracks were the wrong style and did not appeal to me, so Fruil T80 tracks were purchased. I had never done Fruils before and this set was sort of a baptism under fire, as each link was made up of five parts. The parts were very well made but all required some level of cleanup. A mixture of gel and thin CA was used for assembly and worked well. The M74 down the street has similar tracks but with rubber pads for running on pavement. I could not find any similar aftermarket tracks but the chevron pattern on these is at least the same and they are the same in all other respects.
