IDEA!, move the bogie plate to the furthest towards the middle of the car as
you can, it'll work better in cornering, it may look funny, but it turns
better.

And make the bogies longer. This'll allow you to have the pivot point nearer
the center, and still have the coupling not too far from the wheels. And the
pivot point doesn't have to be in the middle of the bogie, either....
