 Subject:  Re: Rubber band tracks.... their future?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Jul 1, 2008
 From:  James Phillips 
Younger modelers? Are you kidding? I'm forty-five years old, and I hate link-to-link tracks! And yes, I know they are the only way to depict the tracks' sag accurately, but I don't care, I won't build any kit that comes with them. In fact, I won't ever buy a kit of a tracked vehicle without first reading a review, to find out what kind of tracks it has. I build both vehicles and aircraft, and I enjoy both very much, but if all the armor kit manufacturers ever abandon rubber band tracks entirely, I'll stick to planes and helis, and give up armor, except for wheeled vehicles.
