There are many many reasons treads are not a good idea . . . but driving-into-a-house capability is one of the good ones

Ripsaw is a beast! I cant believe that little guy is capable of such power. VERY impressive
I want to make one... It looks like so much fun to drive
And for the wheeled vehicles. They must get some very interesting fuel economy
Pretty impressive

Ripsaw has been tested for the US militairy for about a year (maybe even two, i can't remember) and it has
never
thrown a track.
I saw this in a video about it somewhere on the internet.
