I have a TC3 that is great!

The only thing is that on the straights it likes to veer right. I have done everything I can on the transmitter to fix the problem. I even centered toe in/out to make it straight.

Also, on my right front wheel I have has a lot of wear compaired to the rest of the tires.

Please help me!

You have the same problem I had.
I solved this problem by toeing-in, and to make the chamber flat. (other words to make sure the surface of the road is contacting the center of the tire.) There is no real fix for this problem other than adjusting the toe-in and chamber for the front and rear tires. It could also be the front and rear ball diff. Try loosening and tighting them.

which way does the shaft turn on a TC3? anyway, what you are experiencing is torque steer. You cannot get rid of it. you can only accelerate slightly and then hit the throttle.

here is some light reading ...lol (http://www.radiocontrolzone.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=85804&highlight=torque+steer)

Here are a few tips that may help. But usually the right front and left rear takes the most wear. Changes the setup may help; add 1-2 degrees negative camber to offset tire wear, check for chassis tweak (one side of chassis being preloaded), check shock and springs to be sure they are of equal lengths. Using a slightly harder right front tire will have less wear but may lead to a push or tight condition but can be overcome by slight chassis changes.
But always make one change at a time, seeing how it affects the handling before trying something else. If wear is minimal I would be concerned, but in the case of radials and you start seeing the cord I'd think of using a harder right front tire and adjust the chassis if needed.
