G-Machine ultimate goal!

[x-tream]

Has anyone reached there ultimate goal of pulling over a g in the corners???

I'm sure more than a few have, it's not "that" difficult to achieve. With smaller dia wheels i'd be willing to bet my truck gets real close to it.

Well built Gen I's like Mule and such should be able to rip well past 1g on a flat skidpad.

Sure.......

Now I'm looking for the illusive 1.2+ and beyond.

I am just building my first g-machine so seeing as it is relativly simple to get there, what is the highest anyone has tested on a flat skid pad??? street legal vehicls only!!

Up to 40 "G"s on my car..so far.

Right there with ya!! Actually a little more....

Actually, the 1g mark isn't all that easy to achieve. Most g-machines average in the high .80g's to the mid .90g's. You'd be surprised at what most modified cars really can do.

With normal street tires it could be hard, but with a set of sticky slicks it is doable.

During braking you can reach it, but that's another thing. I wanted to test my brakes at a redlight and braked as hard as possible, result: the wife slid out of the frontseat and down on the floor
