Softer front springs or more rear droop?

push
try raising front ride height or lower rear( less droop) i would try a stiffer rear spring. when you are pushing you need more weight transfer to the front... also depends on wheel base, anti squat and rear toe.....you could also use the lower or a shorter front link... or run hole a in the rear hubs.. is this problem off power or on power?

What's the answer?
#1656
push
if its off power there isnt enough weigt transfer to the front.. use stiffer rear springs or 2 deg anti squat or more front ride height..
#1657
On power push.

First you said off-power and mid-corner push, now you say its on-power push?????
#1659
That's what I'm saying Cornerspeed
#1660
On power.
#1661
If you're running 3* anti-squat try going to 2*.

My problem is getting the car to turn into the corner without having to completely lift off the throttle in entry and mid-corner. I can't seem to get the car to drive through the corners. If I apply any power it starts a push.

TOE-IN & BUMP STEER
Anyone here run around 1 degree to 2 degrees TOE-IN. Is toe-in a bad thing to run with the 3 degrees of rear toe-in.
I'm also wondering whether or not the car will handle better with the bump steer up or down.
THANKS EVERYONE !
