Unhappy steering problem

since i get my bit, the adjustment bar was to the left
my problem is my bit turns sharper to the right and widely to the left, so steering is not equal !!!
i tried everything on this forums but i couldn't do it, i didn't understand most on the solutions !!
any one can help ?

dont expect to pop the magnets in and have super perfect steering. it really helps but you will probably have to fiddle with stuff.

do not bend the spring

radioshack is also online.
see my thread in the mod section on my experiencewith the magnets - they are awesome. but still expect some difference in steering due to torque steer.

I hate to pick nits, but you don't get torque steer in RWD cars.
