I just had a close look at the video (I watched it on my phone before and couldn't make out anything useful) and it is differentially braked. I would guess they have a pair of brake systems that are operated by the steering components of the car as they move to each side.
I don't think there is any way to steer a single-tracked vehicle without dragging the tracks. Similar to why tandem trailers kill their tyres so quickly.
