^It's more about the type of suspension rather than how stiff it is. Take the RX8's Double Wishbone vs the BMW's Mcpherson struts and watch how much more BMW's lift the front wheel than the RX8..

Lean wit it, Rock wit it!



Same corner.




I have Hipermax RS F:8KG R:6KG & 28/18mm Cusco Sway bars
Considering how fast the Grand Am cars are cornering, you must wonder how stiff their chassis really is.

Thread revive!

1.5G's
Corner was banked and uphill, felt like it had unlimited grip. Didn't realize how much it loaded up the suspension until I saw this haha.
