[mkiv] Car pull to the right

[Ted Volkman]

Yes, basically turn the wheels by hand.  If something is dragging/
causing enough friction to make the car pull, you would definitely
feeling when trying to turn the wheels by hand.

Another thought, try rotating the tires left to right and see if it
pulls the other direction.  It could be a tire defect.
