[QUOTE="Imatk, post: 15504825, member: 75573"] So after doing some research, I'm not really sure if I have an issue or if it's just the way it is. I have a 2007 with an FRPP TVS at 605 hp. Stock control arms, SVTPP suspension (shocks springs) from the 2012 GT500, 2013 OEM GT500 wheels with MPSS tires... approx 27k miles on the car and have had it since almost new (2k miles). I find it very difficult to launch on the street without the car pulling to the left. Basically it feels like the passenger wheel is doing most of the work, and pushing the car over to the left. Steering wheel remains straight and I have no wheel hop, but there have been more than a couple times where I nearly crapped my pants because it almost spun around on me. Mostly when I'm not paying attention and for whatever reason forget to feather the throttle. My question is... would lower control arms MAKE the car track straight? Is this the reason for the pulling... deflection off of the stock pieces? Or is this just simply the nature of the car and I have to continue to be vigilant and not matte the throttle? Thanks for any insight. [/QUOTE]
