Neon_Skylineboy, check the magnet - make sure it is dead center, not off to one side. If that's not it, let us know and we'll continue to diagnose it.

Check the return spring on top of the steering plate. Mine got a little bent and my steering waqs completly mees up. I didn't paid attention to that little bent in the spring at first, but since I bend it back my car runs like new

Are both of the front wheels spinning freely? Check for hairs, dirt, etc. Are both tires on perfect?

And you've made sure that everything is clean and straight? Is the body on straight, maybe the wheel is rubbing the well?

Does the car appear to turn the wheels the same left and right when you lift it off the floor?

Take the springs out then. If that doesn't fix it, they must be an internal problem of unknown origin. Sorry thats not very helpful.

If it does fix it then I have a set that I am waiting to fit so I will see how it goes.

Are the springs in tight, or did you cut them down?
