[QUOTE="lesgawlik, post: 92706, member: 4115"] I've had good luck with Camoplast. The previous owner had put "C" pattern Camoplast tracks on my T-200, and I ran them for several hundred hours, and they hadn't worn to unacceptable levels. The machine was a rental, and it had its share of gashes and cuts, and had about 50% when i bought the machine. I would be running them today except, as best as I can tell, I picked up a piece of 1" heavy wall steel pipe between the sprocket and the track. As I ran it, the pipe cause the track to pull off of the lugs. The drive dogs on the a few of the lugs had rotated so that they were facing towards the outside of the tracks. I found a piece of pipe in the area I was grading, and it had an indentation that matched a tooth on the sprocket. I replaced the tracks with a Camoplast "W" pattern which was supposed to be good general purpose pattern, with good snow traction. I need to plow my driveway which is very steep and has a 90* turn half way up. The turn is banked to the downhill side, which often leads to disaster. I have done doughnuts spinning out of control in my machine with the old tracks. It's hard to make comparisons, but I haven't had the same problems with the new Camoplast tracks. They seem to be very good in snow. [/QUOTE]
