Oh, I remember seeing this, it has the Madd/matt?? tracks. They say these tracks can go through anything and you will not get stuck. There is a video on youtube about them.

just looks like a truck with mattracks to me. they can only go up to 40mph and they cost anywhere from $15,000 or so to $50,000+. i think the sets for that truck were around $30,000.

i wonder if they enginered a special high speed set for Ken Block though because i can't see having to stay under 40 in his subaru.
