yea adjust the trim on the controller first, the one on the chassis is probably pretty near where it's supposed to be.

I think the front end has a little toe in. Can you adjust it so they have equal toe in?
Yeah that stuttering thing is apparently common. It made me mad when i thought my car was a defect, but now that I know that everyones does it, I'm slowly getting over it.

The "stuttering" does not seem to cause any adverse effects. It may even help the steering return to center better. I have noticed on some cheapo 1/10th servos, that they do not always return exactly to center if you just let loose of the steering. A little back and forth with the steering wheel will bring it back to center again. This may even have been designed into the cars, as they are basically a very cheapo servo set up for the steering.

I noticed the servo motor has a green endbell like a 1.6. I wonder how hard it would be to swap that motor, and I wonder what would happen if I put a torquey clone motor in there. Hmmmmm, I wonder...
