Torque steer?
The annoying tendency of some front-wheel drive vehicles to pull to one side when engine torque is applied. In other words, you step on the gas and the car wants to steer right or left.

you have to have a FWD car that actually produces TORQUE to feel it.
I.E. dont worry about it.

blow me. i think its funny that hes asking what it is due to the fact that hes never felt it. why you may ask? well its obvious, ironic, as funny as shiet. go buy a sense of humor.
Actually I feel it in my car. When you floor it and the car wants to go to either one side or the other. Also the Si doesn't have torque either so I guess Joe was making a joke based on all Hondas, if not

I notice it in my car, I have put on 215/35/18 and I feel it when the tires are in the crown of the road and sometimes in first and second gear, so it is a valid question.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Hahahahaha silver2k1dood you got burned! Did you have to go there to find out what it was? At least be creative and put it in your own words. You get a grade of '0' for that post, and I will send you to the principal's office.

I have never really noticed it in the vic. However, I had a friend with a 3000gt and that thing would pull like mad on takeoff. And my mother-in-laws grand prix gtp is down right dangerous anytime you hammer the throttle.
