Pulls to Right

I have a 2003 Spyder GT. From a stopped position when I step on it it pulls quickly to the right. I don't think it is an alignment problem because it doesn't shimmey at high speeds and tires are wearing normal. I also have checked the engine mounts and they are O.K. I noticed that the GTS model has an option called "traction control". Does the GT model just supply power to one wheel?

No. If it does not do it when you normally accelerate, then what you are experiencing is called torque steer. Torque steer happens on FWD cars that have axles that are not of equal length, so that would include most FWD vehicles.

Lol! I know your pain man. I got a 3000gt and I got mad torque steer. Just always have to be ready to pull it back in line and not smack into anyone else :)

The only time my car pulled to the right was when I blew a right front tire on my old car. Damn Nissan
