my front wheels are"pigen toed" and by that i mean the point toward each other and this is why i think my car will not run in a straight line also the wheels are very wobbley which could be the problem too

does any one have a solution for this predicament?

do u hav a upgraded tie rod ? if u do that is the toe in that came w/ that tie rod and thats y they are "pigeon toed" and as for not running straight u need 2 center your servo

your car doesnt go straight because when the car moves it basically pulls the front wheels and that will make them toe out. you need to find the tutorial on fixing that problem and youll be set

Toe-in is fine.

Yep, that's a lot of toe-in. Don't worry about it, it's normal.

Toe-In is better for micro vehicles than toe-out, even on my 1:10 scale, I prefer toe-in, I wanna drive straighter! but less steering on the exits of corners though...

Do you have awd? If so that will do it. With awd i cannit tighten my wheel as much and my car doesnt go straight.

Same here but I do not necessarily like AWD. I like speed.
