Is that a steering wheel I see being used? Interesting choice for tank drive, though I'm kind of interested in seeing how it handles.

About that robot, I've noticed (when my team had it built) that it was very hard to control, even with an extra 130 lbs (me) sitting on it. We had lots of trouble turning, even on carpet. How did the CMUCam work with that robot?
