Well I didn't ignore the Blizzard track(s) suggestion. But I think there are a few problems with that. Only using one I don't know if there's enough 'flotation' because they are so open. Also they are made to use over the wheels and might not flex tight enough for a small radius, so the scale appearance would be lost. Not sure how you'd use those with sliders, AKA Hifax. The drive I would do direct, I don't see a need for a slipper or any kind of clutch.

Keep in mind 25-30 mph will take about the same amount of power that it would take with a similarly sized boat. Or more.. sleds are huge HP wasters. Even 20 mph would be very impressive.
