Pulled out my TF yesterday, first time since moving 2 years ago.. something happened to the track, it looks like it melted and stuck to the wheels but it wasn't anywhere near heat.... now its broke

Re: Trailfire Toy
Could it have got in contact with some kind of chemicals?

Re: Trailfire Toy
Was it stored near a nuclear powerplant?
Must have been a chemical thing as Kenny mentioned.
Would like to see a picture thought....
There is a used track on ebay right now.

Re: Trailfire Toy
RSplash40,
My Trailfire Toy has the track stapled together, as it just dry rotted sitting in the box. It just happens as the plasticizers slowly evaportate out of the rubber. I don't think anyone is making replacements yet, but I did see where a guy was reproducing the Normatt toy 400 windshields.
We need to talk to Greg "Toymech" about making new tracks, as he is pretty good with that kind of stuff.

PS: The pic's were of all the TF toys Greg, I and his buddie picked up at a toy show a few years ago.
