Thanks for the update Mr. Sailor, good to hear that they come with proper pins

do they seem robust enough in your opinion to stand up to the rigours of rc'ing ?
Cheers, Lee.

Yea they're pretty nice & robust enough for outdoor use but I'd buy a couple boxes to be safe. I know my way around castings since that's what I've over the years to help pay for this & other hobbies so have to say I'm impressed after spending a half hour with these.
Nicely detailed, very clean Zamac links without any trace of flash & its hard to notice the injection points since they are one end which will be easy to conceal. Pins are brass, smooth shank with head & fit nicely, a little too smooth for my taste when inserting into the track but given their size I didn't expect IMPACT's knurled pins. You'll certainly want to use CA to retain the pins after assembly.
Overall very happy & already am lobbying for more 1/16 track & sprockets. Would love to see them do some more mainstream subjects so I can ditch some of my MATO tracks for something a bit more upscale.
I'll give them

Wayne, you can use these tracks also for a Pz. II like I do, because Pz. I tracks were 28cm wide and Pz. II only little bit more with 30cm; you won't recognize the difference in 1/16
Cheers,
Freddy
