Intralox track does not have as much traction as TTS or MTS.
However as Will discussed, it has excellent turning ability which
is critical for a tank destroyer.
I love my Intralox track.
However I will be truthful.
1) My Hetzer throws track more often than other tank.
However, I can reinstall track in less than five minutes.
2) It did snap links in the nasty gravel on the first day
at the Fall Brawl 2006 until I discovered that loose
track tension is better on gravel and tight track tension
is better on grass. However, I can repair track in less
than ten minutes.
3) It is more expensive than TTS or MTS. However,
I am still using the same pair of tracks that I started
with four years ago.
4) John installed Intralox on his PzKfw IV #T012 and got
less traction but better turning. You might ask John and
Tony Tyree, the current owner.
Bottom line
More expensive but an easy reliable off-the-shelf solution

The more traction you have the power it takes to turn. I worked to reduce traction to turn better.

How well do the Intralox tracks work? Looks like they wouldn't have
a lot of traction.
Aahz.
