I'd still be interested to see how they got their numbers. 1.21G in a stock vette is by far the best I have ever seen. That's actually the best I have ever seen from a stock production car on street tires if it's on a 200 ft skidpad.

I bolded the text where it said the Camaro went over 1G. I'm an not sure what is so confusing to you. Here are more numbers. See post #14

Nice numbers. Still far from blowing us away.

Not to discredit this in any way...but if you read much automobile mag....they are balls deep into this new mustang. But I guess they should be...its a solid performer.

Now that you clarify, I'd still be interested to see how they got their numbers. 1.21G in a stock vette is by far the best I have ever seen. That's actually the best I have ever seen from a stock production car on street tires if it's on a 200 ft skidpad. It may not sound huge, but .2G is another 2 m/s^2. That's a lot. Not saying it's not true, just very abnormal.

i believe doing it on a road course like they say they do is different than pulling those numbers on a 200ft skidpad.

Yup. It was on a road course with a heavily-modified car designed to still be street-comfy. On Bridgestone RE-11s and 18" rims.

It was also under damp/wet conditions. They think they could have peaked at 1.7+ with their setup if conditions had been ideal.

No, I was referring to the stock oem Camaro result of over 1G that Pedders got.

Yep, that whole thread is very good. Pedders really praises the Camaro in stock form and coming from them that is very impressive.

I tell you what. If you have doubts, PM JusticePete yourself and he will confirm this. They did it with a very good driver.

Well....they should know. On top of being one of the premiere suspension companies, they've been working with this platform since the Commodore.

I can't help but think that number was peak, though. Most magazines report average...(no matter which they report though is about as useful as EPA mpg ratings....much bigger picture to take into account).

That's what I thought. It said maximum lateral acceleration was 1G+, so comparing it to an average rating of the new GTs (.97G) isn't really the fairest thing to do.
