Armor Question

Building a slider for a longer wheelbase are there any pros or cons for certain designs?

Do you go one continious or break it up?

The area in the box is 73" long.

I would make it continuous, I think if you brake it up you will get hung up as you slide along. As the first one flexes the second one does not.
