Using treads like the Badlands in sandy/loamy conditions will put a lot of stress on the engine and you will end up running the engine very hot. Based on my experience running on loamy/sandy tracks, you are better off with something like an I-Beam, which will give you more wheel spin, but still good traction, and it will put a lot less stress on the engine (as the tires are actually spinning instead of digging). Just my $0.02
