    It says test vehicle but I call bullshit on this one.
    How do you steer it?
    What holds the tracks down on the Idlers/rollers
    It failed the smell test.

    It looks like Dick Landy wrote his race cars off as "automotive research"
    Pretty clever Dick.

    You can barely make out the rollers that keep the track down on top.
    To steer you use a split twin brake system, 2 brake pedals or a system used in tanks.

    Cause it is. They used a half of a V-8, they were in early 60`s Tempest.

  11. I don't understand your constant negativity!! If you don't like something, move on. Your criticism of persons, places and things is getting old.

    I'm no nautical engineer,but that ship doesn't look like it could handle heavy seas/lakes weather. Maybe stating the obvious here.
