I have used Intralox plastic track for four years
and recommend it highly.  I am still using the same pair
of tracks.

The only negative is that it cannot go into deep grass
(3 ft tall) because it slips over the bent stalks.  You can
mold cleats into the links if you wish.

It also collects snow but we have never had any winter
battles.
