RC10 GT pulls left

On very hard acceleration when the front tires are lightly loaded the cars pulls to the left. On lighter acceleration there is no problem. It's like the left rear wheel pulls harder? Any thoughts? Dave

perhaps there is something up with your differential. I just ran my GT today, and it didin't pull left on hard acceleration. Maybe your steering to the left without realizing it. Just a thought.

You could be right on the diff. I bought this used. It pulls when my son drives also. No fingers on the sterring wheel at all. Dave

It's usually related to a bad bearing on the left outdrive of the diff or a left axle bearing. I'll bet one of them has gone bad.

maybe your diff. is unloading which is causing it to do that? try tightening it up a little bit,and make sure your ballstuds are all tight.

Also make sure your rear TOE is exact on both sides. An un-even toe-degree can cause erratic steering too (both front or rear settings)
