The "Task 4" resin that she referenced is specially made for high-stress 
parts, like sprockets and wheels.  It has a longer curing time, but some 
very high Rockwell numbers.  Should work very well and last a long time 
if used with the standard resin on the inner tread, which are made from 
a softer material.
