Sure but I was pretty much assuming that someone on these forums asking this sort of question wasn't worried about that. Basically that if someone was worried about the cornering weight to that degree, that they'd have a source for scales in pit row at the track. Even then, after the crew chief sets up a car "perfectly" for which ever type of race they're racing that weekend, after some practice laps the driver always comes back and wants it changed for his/her liking.
So all the measuring, weighing, knowledge and skill about suspension on the mechanics side is tossed out by the worlds finest judge...the driver's butt.
