Default 1996 Camry V6 pulls to right momentarily

I have a 1996 Camry V6. It drives great like new except one thing. When I accelerate it to about 30 MPH, it pulls to right momentarily (It feels like one sudden gust wind blowing from driver side; or like one 18 semi-truck passing by in the opposite direction). The Camry runs straight after that. I do notice that it happens in the morning when the car just started; many times it occurs when the car is shifting gears.
What is wrong?

What you described in the thread is EXACTLY what my 2001 Camry did up until a few weeks ago. I wish you had some replies/solutions as to what the problem is. Going to look around more but yes, when accelerating, it would pull to the left abruptly. A few weeks ago, my rack and pinion went out so I had it replaced. Tires balanced, front end aligned-all numbers look good. Now it spontaneously pulls to the left not just during acceleration. Steering is good and everything seems fine but not a comfortable feeling when it pulls. The shop is going to look at it again but I really don't know if they know.
