You have exposed my secret mastered ninja skill of getting rubber in 2nd gear with a 17 second car, you must be stopped.
And I do have very unequal drive shafts, I just get use to it and prepare for the tourq steer, and maybe I did too much that time.

Foci's have equil length drive shafts. Would'nt having the same amout of traction on both tires help it not to touq steer? I bet if one of your wheels where spinning you'd feel it pull.

Let me just say this, when it's not hot and humid I have no trouble lighting up 2nd no matter what I do with the wheel.
