Is it possible to make more hard the driving of this tank?

Just off the top of my pointy head...

If there is clutch(s) settings like; torque or friction that may be tweaked to cause slippage and act as slow response too steering input.  Or the tracks, the balance between the lateral and longitudinal grip levels ...but would effect traversing terrain.
Maybe lowering engine torque, this would increase the load on the engine and if the torque of the engine can't over come the load, the rpm's will stall.  The tank's cg of mass, putting this very low and on axis will increase grip and would load the engine more causing the rpm's too stall ...but this would effect it's mobility also.

Maybe controller settings, dead zone, non-linearity settings and decreasing maximum attainable input.  Like pushing a one ton shopping cart with a bad wheel.

There is a setting for it in the tech.cfg file. check it in your tech.cfg

cpillars()

1   Name of the track in your common_res
2   Weight
3   Left lever, braking when turning left
4   Right lever, braking when turning right
5   Drive type
6   Friction
7   Maximum adherence when clutching gear
8   Traction weight
9   Step for splitting geometry
10   Coefficient modifier
11   Pivot turn speed, good setting for making bigger tanks turning slower and feel more "heavy"
12   Number of wheels, count the wheels on your model and in your tech.cfg file
13   List of wheels, check your tech.cfg
14   The path of where the tracks are attached on/by the wheels

That is what i could translate and i added it to my helpfiles available on my dropbox.
I know the translation is a little bit weird but it does the trick, higher number on parameter 11 makes it turn slower and when driving straight forward it lowers your speed when turning =)

There is a setting for it in the tech.cfg file.

OK, does it mean u may present er personal adjusting, where we can see that BT-7 driving become harder or it's just advice `how to`?
Anyway, thanks for the hint.

I dont have my computer (sitting on a old slow laptop) so i cant test it myself, this is taken from my memory when i did the config for the Jagdtiger. So this is a "how to do it yourself" =)
And as lord haw haw asked there is also settings as you can see for the friction of the tracks. So by playing around with those two its hopefully possible to make it more realistic!
