Early History of Flex-Trax Early HistoryTony Bright / Inventor / FounderWhile at a NAPA Store, Tony saw a set if Tire Chains on Display. Having Twenty-six years of engineering experience led him to ponder the following question: Why do people buy these? They are difficult to install and they do not stay on. Once they fly off your tire they get tangled in your brake lines, causing major damage to your vehicle and likely the highway system. He found the only logical conclusion must be that people buy tire chains due to the lack of a better and safer option. With that Flex-Trax™ was conceived.Kitchen Table PrototypeMuch to the Wife’s dismay, Tony began making his first prototype on his kitchen table.

He first had the steel X positive milled and shaped by his machine shop, then placed this well-defined track into liquid silicon to form the cavity to which the hot urethane rubber was then poured. After letting it set overnight to cure, he popped it out of this make-shift mold and stared in wonder. He somehow knew that this was the beginning of something BIG!It was after dark that evening once he had the urethane rubber tracks finally secured to the wheels of his rear-wheel-drive Van. He started off down his driveway and backed around his house where there was a steep incline leading into a power line road. To his amazement the tracks were not spinning at all, as he drudged through 8”-10” of slippery slimy mud and rain soaked grass. The street tires on this van could not have even made it off the main driveway without this traction innovation, but here he was effortlessly climbing muddy trails following the power lines through the hills behind his home. This was the Eureka Moment when Tony first realized that he had created something Very Special!
