It's probably one of the front tires rubbing when the car sits.. Try flipping the tire around on the rim...

does it hit when it turns?
your rear axle might be too tight so the right wheel is rubbing on the chassis

A lose rear wheel doesn't make the ´car go in circles, on mine though. Loosen rear wheel will only make the slower and turn left or right

on a single cell = a loose rear makes your car bank to the right usually since the right wheel is most likely to be loose.

on a dual cell = a loose rear makes your car bank hard to the right

brendan: do both front wheels freely spin?

did you fill the holes in the rims were the pin goes then redrill(seeing as the hole is much larger then the normal rims hole).

or use some kind of spacer like paper inbetween the rear rim and axle.
