how would you cure a mid corner push, with out taking bite out of the car or more tire stagger and not hurt foward drive on exit?

I agree with stock car driver add the stagger or lift, but if you have a panhard bar you could raise it. Has worked for me before.

add rake to the car, lower front or raise rear, equal on each side.

You are not giving enough information to answer your question. Are ya on the floor and going wide? Or maybe letting off at half track and diving in deep, hammering it then pushing? Or holding it on the floor running the inside of track and snatching it left and trying to hold low?
People can throw answers all-night but without more input they can't answer your questions.

For example. My car is loose on exit.

Answer #1. Don't mat it in the center of turn.

#2 Is your LR leading your RR.

#3 How much stagger are you running?

#4 What's the track banking and grip level?

#5. What's your rear %

#6. Are ya trying to pin car down or running the cushion.

There is not enough info to answer your question. I'm pushing inthe middle.

The whole question is........

I would move weights (lead) in the back end of the car. Preferably move a chunk, 20 to 60 lbs. from left to middle or left to right.

Make the car faster through the apex, and you'll always be faster off the turn.

ok why i said not stagger is because we got about all we can get with the tires we are running. i was just looking for some general anwsers. We do run a j-bar even with pinion with 5 inchs of rake, 225 lbs springs across the rear,we run close to 100lbs of bite and don't really want to come down from that it seems like we need the bite for exit.. the mid corner push is a throttle push. We run 1/4" of trail, thinking of messing with some shock setting just don't know what yet.

.. the mid corner push is a throttle push.

The very reason for the suggestions I made.

Get the car more sideways and it won't push. Are you driving it in and then smashing the gas and making it push?
