Question torque steer

Do all of our cars torque steer hard to the left or is it just mine? Mine is an 03 manual.

really only one wheel spins on our cars. I belive it is the right one. To prove it, do a burn out, there should be only a single rubber patch. and maybe a very faded left one.

My alignment is perfect. I'm not talking about anything severe, it's just that when I'm on the gas, the car wants to go left. As for burn outs, the right wheel spins primarily, but I have spun both wheels very nicely through first and second gear.

yah i got that going on you can also feel it when you get a hard shift throug the gears at a high rpm and yah you can really till if you get in another car and it doesn't happen and the next thing you know you are in the next lane.... kinda odd but no prb. Just been dealing with it.
