hi

 

some of you out there must have experienced this one.

 

if you accelerate hard through 1st and second the front end wheel woobles.this only happens in the first 2 gears. i am sure it has nothing to do with the steering.

has anyone experienced this, does anyone know cure

 

regards

err yeah! dont floor the throttle in the lower gears from a standing start! it's called axle tramp, wheel spin, torque steer......... your throwing a lot of energy into the large rotateing things on the end of the drive shafts and as they spin up they dont always get a good grip and bounce around a bit! as they struggle for grip and start dragging the rest of the car along

you will probably notice this more if your tyres are a little worn.
