My year Superformance has an 8.8 Ford IRS as I recall. Most of my hard acceleration results in a pretty hard pull to the left. I don't know if this is just the torque demons twisting the car - but it could be the car isn't set up properly. All I know is, the "pucker factor" has definitely been present during rocket sled launches - hence the reason for my initial post.
