Tony C Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Anyone have reliable cornering 'g' data available for a 7. I've seen that the average tintop can give about 0.7g and a Formula 1 from 1.4g to 4.5g Depends on tyres and set-up of course, but would 1g be too far off?

stevefoster Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 With Yoko 008's I could pull 1.0G and not much more even doing crazy things. Could be a more with slicks but I never monitored the G on the circuits I raced on. Someone must have done this... Forgot to say this was done using the predecessor to the AP-22 accelerometer. I've only done acceleration tests with Jason's AP22 and always forgot to at the race meetings.

rgrigsby Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I've seen between 1.1 and 1.3g at Lydden on slicks but the figure bounces up and down a bit so I can't guarrentee how accurate it is. Rob G www.SpeedySeven.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I've seen just over 1g (peak) going around roundabouts and at Curborough on list 1A tyres. Dunno about sustained g - you'd need a datalogger for that. Project Scope-Creep is underway...

neil.cavanagh Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Formula 1 is more like 3-4g!!! super sticky tyres and HUGE downforce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe 90 Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 On a Megagrad on CR500 (road legal) I've seen 1.2g at Mallory. SEP field working, not spotted in 103,100 miles. Some photos on webshots, updated 21 Sept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V7 SLR Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 1.1G on very hot ACB10's. Truth is, I probably got slightly more but the particular corner I was testing on bounced the car a bit. I watched the scale as much as I dared and could see a consistent 1.1G. The AC22 will record peaks but I'm sure the 1.6G peak it recorded was as a result of the bouncing.
