The torque reaction on that vid shows one can use sudden throttle opening and closing to steer a Yak on a muddy field. Differnetial braking does nowt as the wheels just lock and slide in the mud, but whack open the throttle and the right wheel digs in turning you right, slam it closed and the left digs in!

Worked a treat at Barton in winter!
