hi!
1. differencial gear is needed to give an ability to rotate right and left
wheel independantly
when car's moving ahead there is no difference in speed of rotation left and
right wheel
but whe car's running on a curve every wheel is going to run different way
because radius of a circle
(which draws ie on snow or sand) is different
2. is explained in post by SteP
regards
