Default torque steer question

Alright the problem is that i cant seem to be able to keep the car going straight while boosting in third. Once boost kicks in, the car pulls to the left and then afterwards to the right then i shut down without finishing 3rd. Am i suppose to get the feel of the torque steer and just counter it? currently im running 455hp with type r lsd and traction bars. the front tires are 225 bfg drag radials.

are your traction bars adjustable? if so make sure they adjusted to the same length.

i'll have to take a look but does anyone have the same problem. Maybe i just have to ge tthe feel for the power but seeing how it pulls the car out of lane makes me very hesistant.
