could be worn tires. If they've worn into a cone shape or something like that they could roll your car to one side for sure.

How good was the alignment's pre-work checkup?
- tire inflation
- suspension bushings
- steering gear, inner and outer
- condition of rack -> could have a leaky seal inside causing more pressure on one side...
- struts (many say this will not affect alignment but I know from experience that it WILL)
- rear alignment ( many shops say the rear cannot be aligned but it CAN )

other stuff to check
- dragging brake(s)
-- including park brake


Is it just during acceleration? is it possible you're feeling torque steer?
