G Force from 02Z
How many G's do you think a stock 02Z w/F1s would pull through a turn?

I believe that GM's published skidpad value for the 02Z was 0.99G...There are cars that exceed 1G, such as the Lotus Elise (1.01G, if I recall correctly)..

No. its not. I was aware of the reports, but wondered what real time data people see on road courses.

Put on some Pfadtcoilovers, sways and some hoosier's and you can pull a 1.4 +.

I think the C6 has a G meter but I'm not convinced that I'd spend $$ on that function. Even the highest performance F1 cars only generate 3-4 G.
Having flown fighter jets most of my life the (lateral) G I'd experience in a Vette may not be worth recording
