About the sprocket meshing. Sorry for the confusion. The problem would be that the track and sprocket both wear. Track wears out to the point that you've actually removed i think a maximum of 10 links. Now you go and re-drill them and fit oversized pins. It will tighten the whole track up again and you need those 10 links back. However now the spacing between links is different so it wont properly mesh on the worn out sprocket. Does that make more sense. Basicaly you'd also have to replace the sprocket and get it bang on. If you don't and one or the other (track or sprocet) is out they will wear each other out much faster.
