I have noticed sometimes at random points that cars, at the very start of the race, will once in a long while (it's only happened to me a few times) pull very sharply to the right for the beginning straightaway. It goes away at the first turn as I apply the brakes and turn the car and tires squeal, then he car is normal. It can't be for just stock cars because then all of them would do it, but it does seem to happen more often to them....and it isn't my DS2 because then it would happen throughout the race.

Has this happened to anyone else, or does anyone have an explanation for this?
 
Let me ask you this: does it only happen on the rolling-start races?

In using the DFP, I've found occasions where I've been subconciously 'driving' the car a little through the pace lap before it gives you control. Then when it suddenly hands over control at the start/finish line, I may have a slight bit of steering lock in, causing the car to suddenly jag when the controller goes active.
 
I noticed that when you start the S licences at infineon and la sarthe the car will jerk a little the one side, right after it crosses the start/finish line.
 
I can't possibly remember if they were all rolling starts, but that is a VERY good idea Duke, and next time it happens to me I'll see if that's the case. I'm gonna start writing down everything about the situation when it happens again and see if I can pinpoint it.

that also happens to me on the flying starts its anoying but not that big of a deal

Alright, so we've confirmed that it's not limited to me.

Is it ONLY on rolling starts? How often does it happen to you?
