Whats your 'G' meter?
Curious whats the highest G's you've pulled so far.
I'm still breaking things in so only about .45 - but it felt good

I've hit .7-.8 many times. Others on the forum have hit the 1.0 mark. It's very easy to get that meter up there by applying heavy throttle through the apex of most turns. I've only broken the rear end loose once, on dry pavement, but I didn't have time to look at any meters while that was happening.

I managed .9 for a short time before the rear end and steering started talking to me.
I'm still looking for my colon on that one. Oh wait, probably TMI huh?
God I love the feedback in this car. It's so well balanced for feel if driven properly.

With the tires sufficently warmed up, I can hit 1.05 regularly on flat corners. I've hit 1.27 at Texas World Speedway, and I think I can go higher, I just have to trust that the grip is there.

I have hit .95 a few times and 1.0 once. Usually hit a 90 degree right turn real hot and just turn the wheel. No throttle in the turn. Make sure I have sufficent slide out room just in case! LOL

I have hit .78 myself. My wife drove it one day and asked me that night if .86 was any good. I think I am going to have to go with her next time.

Go big or don't go...
I've been in the high .9's and over 1; 1.26 one time that I remember but the rear-end was breaking loose on a switch back near Lake Travis.
It's hard to watch the HUDs when doing those things...
