I have not seen what you are specifically refering to.

However being I work for a company that deals with this on a daily basis, we use heavy sheets of plywood. They are useless for anything else after a few runs, but they last quite sometime.

You might want to check scrap metal places for old aircraft landing strips. They are usually 10' long and 2' wide we use them all the time for enter and exiting sites that are real muddy. They were used by the armed forces for building temporary landing strips in remote places, at one time they were real easy to get.

They are fairly light because they are basically stamped metal with holes all over. They have tabs on one side that need to be cut off or bent over, otherwise you will cut your tires all up.

Good Luck

We've been doing some renovation on the golf course here at work. We had to move a D6 Cat across 2 fairways. I used sheets of 3/4" plywood with great results.
