I found this one tonight using the RCX:

and will probably take a stab at re-creating it on the NXT. If only we had
smaller NXT motors without the built in rotation sensors.

You may use RCX motors with conversion cables. But rotation sensors help to
coordinates motors to drive precisely in any direction.

I love your toe-like "wheels" ;o)
