THat's usually the case. It happens (to us anyway) because the motor on the right wheel is turned around. The motors don't run the same speeds forwards an backwards, so when the left is running full fwd and the right full bwd, they're in the same direction, but the speeds are off slightly. It doesn't change a lot if ur moving slowly, since the system has a lot of friction, but when you gear up the speeds, the robot doesn't go anywhere near straight (speaking from personal experience in a narrow hallway)
