We simply don't agree.

Assuming an unchanging radius on a smooth track, the lateral G is simply a measure of the speed in which the kart is travelling IN the corner. A Kart which can travel faster IN a corner gains in at least 3 ways:-

* It can Brake later and less: thus covers the entry zone of the corner in a lesser time.

* It travels THROUGH the radius of the corner in less time

* It enters the following straight carrying higher speed and that will remain until 'drag' (friction, air resistence and 'increased altitude') limits the kart to its maximum speed... or it enters the next corner...... at higher speed again!

If you have found a way to increase the 'smooth' lateral G WITHOUT increasing the speed through that corner, you have just found the holy grail of Physics: you've just found a way to simulate gravity, laterally, WITHOUT using acceleration. I am impressed! So would Einstein have been as he clearly stated that it's impossible!

I respect you but I don't agree with you.

And you still haven't dealt with the contradiction: you want grippier tyres on a kart that already has too much grip. That's just BIZARRE!
