I was`nt planning on using "(cheating)" guide disks,
I was going to rely on the guide teeth (bolts (M4 12mm)) to hold the tracks.

If you want a tank with real guide plates, take a look at the M1 Abrams. They started out with them because it threw tracks but removed them when they started causing problems of their own (dirt, etc getting clogged up).
The Marines reintroduced them I think. You don't see them on all Abrams, but they're out there...
