Tank tracks are hard I've heard. See if you can buy some tank toy and then just hack it.

Can you provide a bit more in terms of intended use and scale?  Here are a few to get you started...

Aha

As said above, those can be hard to find. However there are many alternatives depending apon your requirements.
Small tank treads can be made pretty easily from the chain of a bicycle, You can buy it in custom lengths from some
hardware stores I think.

Good luck

There are tons of RC toys you can buy/hack for cheap.

stay away from the tamiya tank tracks, they strech and the gears strip easily.
