So they used a cheap trick and made it "chatter" back and forth so it goes straight. Did you ever notice while driving the car that it is also "chattering" at the same time? The frequency of the wheels chattering left and right is fast enough to make the car appear to be going straight. It does work for these tiny cars but the chattering noise is annoying. I guess that is something they thought was worth sacrificing.

Do you get what I am trying to explain?
ABSOLUTELY, and it is a VERY cheap trick at that! That makes PERFECT SENSE!!

Wow, okay, i have some new theories to test now. Great job!

I will try to get back to you all about the controller modding to get a dead spot in the centering.. I got mixed up with 2 cars being modded at the same time, and now I have to put the steering all back to stock since my notes dissapeared and start over... I think my dogs were messing with the notes, they get mad when I work alot, and just take random papers off my floor.. I don't leave my ZZs on the floor either because they think they are dog toys LOL...
