oh, yeah...

skidpad g's are measured while making the car go in a circle, aka turning... what do you do in a corner? i would call that turning... that's why it's relevant, and yeah, the skidpad g's and cornering g's are the same...

aero aids help out at high speeds cornering, but on a street car, the aero is pretty much the same b/n the viper and vette, so if you have better skidpad g's, you will have better cornering in general...

keep in mind that the vette is less tail happy than the tq monster viper... which tends to break traction just for fun... and that's just on stock cars... vettes historically handle better than vipers b/c they are more well balanced...
