| Oct 7, 2022 at 8:04 | comment | added | Timothy Scherer | Thanks for the answers. But in here for example they state that when motogp bikes brake at 2g , the weight of the bike doubles motorsportmagazine.com/articles/motorcycles/motogp/… , they claim the bike is 260kg and say during braking twice the amount of weight 520kg is put on the front wheels. Do motorbikes experience this and cars dont ? | |

| Oct 6, 2022 at 16:17 | comment | added | BillOnne | I would be surprised if a car could corner at 3 g. I should think not much above 1 g would be the maximum, possibly not even that much. Rubber wheels rolling on pavement are not going to do much better than a coef of friction of 1. | |
| Oct 6, 2022 at 16:05 | comment | added | Timothy Scherer | road isnt sloped just normal road without any slope or banking etc. I also meant the downwards weight. | |
| Oct 6, 2022 at 16:00 | comment | added | DKNguyen | In what direction are you defining weight? Down? Or perpendicular to the road surface? And is the road corner sloped like a race track or is if horizontally? | |
