How hard can i push my little car. I have an 89crx si with the ebach 1.25" drop race springs and tokico blues. What sort of lateral G's can I expect to pull?.......and my roomates are using peer pressure to try and get me to take a bong hit....i'll never give in. I need all the brain I can get!

 

someone has to know.........I'm pretty sure its possible to find out from setting up a cone circle and driving as fast as you can with out slipping. If you know the radius and your speed you can find out lateral G's. Can anyone confirm this? If so formula.....

 

Bust out the good old G'Tech and get crackin'.

 

I don't have a g-tech......although it would probably be a good investment

 

Just incase anyone was interested the formula for finding this is

lateral G's = (v^2)/r.........where v is velocity before slip in m/s and r is the radius of the circle you are driving around.

I will probably try this soon and let you guys know what kind of results i get

 

I set up my G-tech for peak lateral g's durring an auto-x once... somewhere on the course I hit 1.6g's. I know that's not the right way to measure, but it was the fun way.
