Check out this picture: http://team228.org/gallery/141/slide...f667-6fb2d.jpg

That's how 228 has cut the grooves into their wheels, looks pretty straightforward.
You are actually dead on with that question, current it does drift a bit right when I throw both sticks all the way forward. What do you mean by a wheel being misaligned? Did you bother with any fix or did your drivers just get used to it?

That.. looks almost kinda sketchy lol. We do have almost the same saw will mention that to the team.
