Thanks Harry. I get the point. In my naivete, I had hoped for a simpler quantification of performance. Imagine lapping a track, and taking each of 14 turns at the very limit of adhesion, suspension well settled, everything (much too) perfect. In my mind, I had hoped to be able to see 14 briefly sust...

Thanks for your input, lunat1ck. My sloppy choice of words had you give a more considered response than was actually necessary. I'm also an engineer, which is why I'm interested in this topic. To clarify my earlier post, I'm not actually looking for the force exerted at each wheel, lateral or otherw...

I'm wondering about the lateral g calculation...? If driving around a turn that is completely flat, then a GPS calculation could be expected to determine the lateral g's. However, if the turn is cambered, the GPS-based calculation will be incorrect. Consider, that if the turn is steeply banked, that...
