Default Handling - One Way

Now my car installed with oneway. Theoriticly what I understand is the oneway will have auto brake by itself and if I apply brake on power the car will intend to spin!

So I let it rolling by itself entering the corner. But what happen is if I full throttle on staright line than off power ( because want to entering corner) instead of rolling the car is tend to oversteer, spin to right clockwise! Seem like the oneway bearing lock by itself make an a break and make the car spin!

One thing - if i full throttle and than release (off power) on straight line at the end the car tend to turn right or spin right! Is it due to my setup! Again! What happen?

If you get a car that leans to a side when you release thottle is due to a fact you have something not ok on your car, could be the rear toe-in (more toe-in in one side), a stiffer spring or if you run foams, a larger foam tyre in one side. Generally if your car leans to the right is at left side the problem.

Much probably you don't have completely straight your steering and this causes the off power leaning to a side. Check it.

Default Setup Station

Yes and No...
I did setup my car with intergy setup station. But it turn to be mess up once I adjust it manually on the track once I saw it swaying. I adjust it by objective to make it run straight on track without really sure on how many degree! That stupid isn't it!

Yes it is stupid.
another thing could be rong is if u have a bit of drag on the brakes with the one way and slight off centre set up on steering,
or u could have a bad bearing in the Front Right if puling right, or rear Right if still pulling to the right, just pull the bearings from around the diff and turnbuckle and chek the friction in them, and replace accordingly, or rebuild.

Is your brake set up to drag when at no throttle?

Also, u could try when it starts to spin, just blip the throttle slightly to pull the back end out of the slide.
But make sure that both sides of your car are equal.
like rear toe is the same on each side, same with camber
on front check that left and right have same setup, then chek the rear left to right has same setup
