Embodiments of the present invention relate to tracks and a related monitoring system. In some embodiments of these teachings, the track can include one or more ground contacting elements (“GCE”) having rubber. Within each GCE, one or more integrated circuits (“IC”) are positioned. One or more conductive elements are positioned within each GCE. Each conductive elements is positioned external to but in electrical communication with of the ICs. Each conductive element is applied on an elastomer. Each conductive element includes one or more conductive compositions having fully exfoliated individual graphene sheets.
