there wont be binding created without a differential your treads on your tires will just have to be slick so you can power slide the back end through the turns kinda of like drifting in Need for Speed Underground or Tokyo Drift. Also if you were controlling the rear wheels independently you could program the robot to rotate the wheels at different rpm when executing a turn which would eliminate some of the force exerted on the robot during turns.
