3) Traction control is bad from a stand still. Wheel always slips for a moment on the slightest amount of loose rock and dirt. I think this is the reason for such terrible acceleration from zero. Too much torque I guess. If you are going 30 mph and floor the pedal, the car moves out quite quickly. But from a standstill, it barely moves.

Mine tugs left and right and left and right. Does yours/anybodys do this? It is weird, and a little bit scary. To be fair, the car is not technically out of control... so long as you are paying attention and compensating.

This is torque steer. The amount the FFE has can defenetly catch a newbie driver off guard.
