Bouncing turns

The Schmoebots had this problem as well. They solved it by simply removing the tires on one end and running on the rims. There's a little bit of slip from the different diameters, but it doesn't seem to cause any problems.

We did have this problem but after our first match we deflated our tires to the recommended 35psi(instead of 50psi), we still get some bounce but only in low gear.
