PyODE and Joint Velocities

I am attempting to get the PyODE vehicle.py example to work, found at this url: http://ift.tt/1bcoosv

I have installed all of the dependencies and it compiles just fine, but I can't get the vehicle to move around the world. Clicking the mouse lifts the vehicle up, and I have added print statements in doEvents, so I know the keyUp and keyDown functions are working as expected, but the actual velocities of the wheels don't change.

After calling self.wheel1.setParam(ode.ParamVel2, self._vel), the velocity has changed to the expected value, but the scene does not change after the next render call.

I have also eliminated the possibility that it is the direction of the axes on the joints, because if I apply a force to the entire vehicle, the wheels spin as expected.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
