Chris,
   Ever see that T-shirt that reads "Oh, I guess it WAS rocket science"?
   I expect to have a bit of a traction problem, but I'm hoping that if I 
avoid entering any tractor pulls, I will be able to deal with it by careful 
driving.
   If some kind of cleat is required, then I will probably simply use model 
cement, though I'm not sure these tracks are the right kind of 
plastic.  PVC cement might be required.
