pepatt is that your white tracker on tracks????

Naw, just a pic I found. It doesn't snow enough in Ohio to make it worth putting tracks on (it just gets annoyingly cold). Kinda like owning a snow mobil for two days a year! ::)

if it is how does it handle in the corners ... the guys in the origional videos for the topic looked like they hard a real hard time turning.

I think that's just the nature of the beast. You get a track three feet long and you're going to reduce turning radius. I think it would be hard to overcome this obstacle. My guess is that you have to have the tracks spinning and kind of slide them to turn, otherwise you'd blowup your PS pump. This is probably your main slowdown in turning. But hey, you're moving through three feet of snow... so who's bitchin?  :P

I'd heard these can be adapted ...

Not as strong as the mattracks, but much cheaper too.
