Question Has anyone EVER had a Booster car that wouldn't drive straight?

2 of the 3 regular Bits I have pull to the side, but all 6 of the Booster sets I have ordered for myself or friends drive arrow straight. I'll never buy another non-booster.

TheFanMan's friend's new nissan fairlady (booster) pulls to one side pretty bad, and the gear mesh does not fit right. Kinda a lemon i guess. it has good stock range though.

Oh I don't doubt that there are plenty of regular bits that go straight, it just seems from my own experience and observing the forums that the steering problems are mostly stemming from standard bits. Yeah I know that's what most people own so statistically that's what most complaints will come from. Was just curious what others had to say.

I must agree.... I have three booster cars....and all drive straight......although one of my booster cars is begniing to show sign of misalignment.....hmmmm, but so far i think that the booster cars are better....and will consider ever buying a regular bit....

I should have my Booster in about 1-3 days!

i hope it is better at handling than my Microsizer Mitsu Lancer...that thing NEVER goes straight, even when its off it would probably roll to the right...maybe its the extra power from the red ZZ motor in the microsizer?

Thing is, they have solid axles, so the power from the motor is distributed equally across both rear tires.
