Steve, I know our data and the way you acquire yours are different and I DO NOT want to claim our data was acquired "Car and Driver" style. Ours was acquired on a road course, with a pro driver, on street tires (225 front!) At that time we hadn't done much data acquisition, and we were astonished with the numbers, so on the web they went.

Sometime in the near future I'd like to perform the average two-way test on some of our stuff and post those numbers. We just have to find the time, and the location.
You're date is just as valid as ours.. I just want people to alway consider how data is gathered. That way when they see one car the did 1.2g and one that did .99g they will ask "what was the scientific methodology used to get that number?" That way they can make a valid comparison between the two cars.

Using out method nobody could do even 1g on street tires (non r-compound).

I think the most impressive point about ART stuff is how well it does in the various auto-x and road track events. I think kicking butt in that really quiets down the doubters.
