Taxi tests today, plane is quite hard to keep straight above 25mph. More practice or misaligned rudder and front wheel?

Thanks for the comments. Vance, I did have that thought when I was taxiing that I don't actually know at what speed this plane becomes controlled more by the rudder than the wheels.
The instructions for brake conditioning said 30-40mph but I never made it that fast.
I have transition training in two weeks, I should have a much better feel for the dynamics of this plane after that.

I would be very careful taxiing a 750 above 25 MPH unless you are ready to go flying.

Paul,
You may want to check the main gear tracking as well?
