Bruce,
Your KV-1 with the kit tracks look great. I don't have the problem that some builders seem to have when it comes to the vinyl band tracks on the Russian or American vehichles. I only want to build a decent representation of a certain vehicle. Some of the KV's had very little sag in the tracks. I know some builders are very exact when it comes to their models. I don't woory too much about it.
I do worry about it on the German vehicles. Without the sag it isn't a decent representation. I did read somewhere that builders will run thread through each track that has a bogie below it and tie the track down. I'd rather just get the individual links for the German vehicles
