Tourque steer is actually due to the axle half shafts being of an un-equal length.

Torque steer is an inherent problem with FWD drivetrain cars.
Only the ones with high power (ie ours. )

Exactly littledog! So one does extrodenarly things to put the power to the ground when leaving briskly from a stationary position. Rock the wheel, shift the weight, make the tranny sing, or barf, but don't just hold the wheel streight out of the hole. If he gets ahead, lay on the horn, get a loud one and scare the hell out of him, ah!
