Greetings!
Thanks for sharing the pictures! Interesting results!.. Just some insights to

square might reduce the tendency to twist, although the turning resulted in
interesting footage... I also don't know if the wheel distance side to side,
(front shorter than rear ) being different didn't also contribute. Those new
tires that came on the big blue two truck "might" work out a little better due
to not as much flex as the large ones that were used ... They used to be
available from S@H fairly cheap....
Anyway, Thanks for sharing your experiment and good luck with the next one!
