Can someone please help me out and point me in the right direction as to where I can find some drawings or parts? Thanks in advance.
If you are planning to build a swerve AND a hurdling mechanism... Good Luck... I certainly wouldn't undertake it...

But if you just want to focus on herding the balls and quickly moving around the track why not? If your drive train is the only thing your building this season why not do something sophisticated like a swerve?
