The crew is back with some new vehicles and the Photo report is at least partially in. Enjoy!

I see that a Sheridan broke a track at the event. Getting track link replacements might be difficult since that model is still pretty new unless the kit included extras.

Kit has 6 extra links.

Nice to see some of the Calif. folks made it. I might try for a spring trip down there again.

Kit has extras. The vehicle moves very fast OOB and over our hard ground lots of tracks break. We had a brand new HL Leo 2 Metal track break in the first 20 feet of driving. We have made improvements and eliminated as many of the little rocks we can to save the vehicles!

The Tiran 5 barrel was purchased from AFV-MODEL.COM about 7 years ago when I got the T-55. Definitely a shelf queen! I do not think it is available anymore?
