A system for controlling slip of vehicle drive members is disclosed. The system includes a power train including a plurality of drive members and a hydraulic transmission configured to supply torque to at least one of the drive members. A magnitude of the torque is related to fluid flow in the hydraulic transmission. The system further includes a controller configured to control the fluid flow in the hydraulic transmission. The controller is configured to receive a signal indicative of a steering command and a signal indicative of a parameter related to pressure in the hydraulic transmission. The controller is further configured to control slip of the at least one drive member based on the signal indicative of a steering command and the signal indicative of a parameter related to pressure.
