Hi a312er,

A couple of things

1. Place the drive wheel in one of the corners instead of the middle. The problem is that when the tracks does not hit the drive wheel it will not drive the track. Use CogWheel to dive the drive wheel from one of the Crawler's wheels.

2. Make the other wheels also turn to help move the track. Currently all other wheels in your rig is static, make sure to make them move also by using ExtraWheels or CogWheels.
