no not money lying horizontially........the amount of corning force you can handle........what is the stock rating for a 91 RS L03 F41? what about a 92 Firebird with the same RPO's? Have any of you autocrossers reached the magical 1g mark yet? if not how much can your car handle and what mods have you done?

I am assuming that I can take up to 9 lateral g's because I have upgraded with passenger tires and the assumes suspension ever made on a f body the one cam stock on the lowest grade firebirds as the base suspension, along with 15*7" rims that were made out of carbon fiber that was accidentally mixed with bird shut with spray paint on top

I believe that would be .9 .Even heavily modified cars and corvettes are only around 1G. Light weight,Sticky racing tires,and a wider track width are the best ways and if youv'e got tons of money and time then you can blueprint your chassis.
