I'd do it like the left image. Split the wire and connect to both motors.

Worked wonderfully, thank you

We drove our robot for the first time yesterday! It was glorious.
It also showed me that the controls are not sensitive enough at low levels and too at mid levels. So rather than just plugging in the axis values to the Drive Station plugins, I now want to do something like this:
If (axisValue < 0.4)
___axisValue*=1.5;
else if (axisValue > 0.4 && axisValue < 0.75)
___axisValue*=0.8;
(else, no change to the value)
I know (roughly) how to use the simple arithmetic and t/f vi's, but I couldn't quite figure out how to wire the input through so many if-then-else-if type scenarios successfully
EDIT: Added a pic of my attempt
