I am thinking of using a half moon metal disk mounted on the steer servo, as seen in the How to Articles page, that will be in contact with 2 relays (don't need the sparks!). Attached jpeg.  In center position , both motors are on. When the servo and the half moon disk turn, only one motor is on at a time.
BUt this should not be new to you guys.
The speed controller should do the gas and accereration. I am hoping that when idle, it does not give any voltage  to motors.
My 83 euro worth speed controller does not reverse polarity, so, no I will not be able to do 360 turns.
 
Happy tanking 2007 everybody!
