Ok so my car rotates way more turning to the left than the right. Pushes like a dump truck to the right. Everything is the same left to right. How can I fix this?

So built for around 2 1/2 hours last night and finished page 10.

Going pretty well so far, had no parts missing or incorrectly machined.

Going to try and finish it tonight.

No that's not the problem end points on my radio came out exactly the same front end and rear end is completely square. It's got something to do with weight transfer.

Maybe she's just not an ambi-turner. Cant turn left lol!

How about hinge pins, shocks, tires. Make sure everything can move freely? If not something simple like that I don't have a good explanation.

Brew a fresh pot of coffee and push on through. I built mine in 7 hours with electronic install. Put Anchorman on the boob tube and have some laughs.

I'm trying to understand the terminology a bit. I think what Jared is describing is whats happening to me and my car but not sure if I understand exactly what "push" means.

Thanks.
Push is when the front of the car hits the wall. Loose is when the rear hits. I think some famous driver said that and it was easy for me to understand.

Ok finally getting my new tekin gen2 esc and going to finally be running mod motor on my b4.2, so I was just wondering what would be a good gearing to start off with on the buggy, below is a pic of the track I run on. It's a high bite clay track......
