The most I ever recall seeing was .81 on a nice on ramp on the way to work. Not very much and I suspect she had a lot more to give but my my tires were not really warmed up nor was my nerve.

Just wondering what kind of g-force others have been able to achieve - folks with HUDs please respond - I haven't been able to push myself past 0.74 g's (need to go to driving school?), however, temperatures have been only around 40 Farenheit or so. I don't know if this makes a difference?
Please also mention whether in a C6 or Z06.

The book says press and hold the page button after you stop but before you turn off the car. It doesn't seem to work with my '05 however

1.02 at a track. They guys are right as to holding the page button for the highest g pulled since start up. Note, you may have to hold the button down for several seconds before it registers.

WOW!! Did you use a G-suit, or did you just do a really great anti-G straining maneuver to prevent G-LOC from the “9+” Gy forces?

1.09 at the track. 
To get the maximum lateral g reading for your driving session, you have to hold down the Page button for what seems like an eternity - I'd say at least 5 seconds. (I have an '06, not sure about the '05s.)

I posted the same question on another forum 
My highest to date is 1.16 on a nice 270degree on ramp, that was with stock Z51 suspension and tires
I have a track weekend coming up in a couple of weeks, so I sure hope I can break that
