you will notice one arm has more play than the other. Shim the front arms so they are completely perpendicular to the chassis' centerline.

Then move on to the shocks, make sure they're equal left to tight. Please install the original plastic steering rack/wipers to investigate the problem. I had this issue for a whole race season when I was about to giv up mchassis racing!!!

Once I got it right, I'm always somewhere on the podium Good luck mate!
