Ah, then I'd bet you'd be fine! A 6 wheel drive narrow chassis breaks up the wheel base into 2, 28 x 19 rectangles (roughly), which is a ratio of 1.47:1. With a wide chassis, you have one wheel base that is a rectangle of 38 x 28 (roughly), which is a ratio of 1.36:1. Now short of vector analysis, that's easy math that can show you the turning abilities should be somewhat similar; don't expect any major changes.
