Does AFV Club make T 51 one piece tracks? I've searched everywhere and all I can find are T49's.

Hi. No, AFV Club only do separate workable ones 35026
You can always give the AFV club workable ones a go.
I did Bronco's version a few years ago. AFV Club are simpler, but I worked out an easy way to get Bronco's done, where a lot of people gave them up as too fiddly. As per my Club's website:

Peter, Thanks for the tutorial ! I've got a couple of other Bronco track sets and your system should work for them too.

Thanks Peter, I've done a couple of sets of the workable T51's and have more in the stash. I was just hoping to save some work being these are live tracks and well detailed. Oh well, back to the indy link T51's!

Ivanhoe & Laramie. Glad it is of some use to you both. It works a similar way for Bronco M3/M5 tracks too.
