Talking Negative vertical G's in driverseat

Was out on a cruising tour yesterday with the Swedish Pony car clubs. We met at a large parking area and on my way in to that I drove my car hard. It's fun to announce the precense when arriving to gatherings like that.

Anyway pulling hard on 1-2-3 gears on the road leading up to the parking I got in to a long depression in the road. Going out of that was sort of a steep raise and going over that I got airborne in the seat and hit my head in the roof! Nothing happended to the car, it didn't bottom out or so, other than it was driving along under me for a moment.

Good rollercoasters are supposed to give the rider negative G's, you can get it in a Camaro too


Lucky for me my wife wasn't aboard, refering to the Riccardo Patrese experience.

It is really fun to drive this car hard and fast, it does it so well.
