Juggernut Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Quick Tracks yet? I just discovered this and am thinking about trying a set (probably the Panther tracks - when they come back in stock). They look very promising, at least to me. Moveable track links of the likes of Modelkasten, Rye Field Models, etc. are my downfall; they just fall apart on me. No matter what I do (barring cementing them in place after I've installed them on the vehicle) I can't make them stay together. Two days ago, I chucked an entire 1/35 Rye Field Models Tiger I late because the tracks would not stay together. The tiny track pins just kept breaking on me. I'd fix one and they'd break in another spot in spite of careful handling.... Yep, chucked the entire model in the trash; it was almost complete. Nope, not worth my level of aggravation/frustration so out it went. Hardcore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 I just ordered a set for my Meng Magach 6B Gal. They look good, although some reviews say they are a little stiff compared to some of the other 3D printed track sets. Christa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantom Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 I have used them and they are fantastic! I used them on my panther and they worked really good, they saved a lot of time. they just snap together. Mike LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Thanks so much. I have dumped all except three of my 1/35 for same reason. I will look into these. LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Got the Quicktracks Magach/Merkava tracks today. Pretty quickly clicked together a run of 12. Zero cleanup and they look perfect. Slightly narrower that the kit tracks, which means I’ll have narrow the kit drive sprockets. thierry laurent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hworth18 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I just ordered a set of the M18 tracks for my Tamiya Hellcat. We'll see how good they are. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hellcat is one of the kits I kept after moving to 1/16. I am looking forward to seeing your reaction. hworth18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Yeh they look quite good. I despise the rubber tracks that come in kits, although I don't mind the magic track that comes in dragon models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
