i know how they turn XD being blunt is fine though,i looked at the system 
you use,but i had originally drawn up the plays for this as a 2:5 scale 
ride on powered by a lawnmower engine,i just wanted to make a paintball 
tank also,so the plans merged into one,double diff steering is how alot of 
ww2 tanks operated, i hate to be blunt,but do you have any idea how a 
differential works? i can explain it,well i already did,just read all the 
comments for the tread,its in there somewhere,just keep in mind i intend to 
make this gas powered after i retire it from paintball.
