New G-Vectoring tech to make Mazdas drive even better

I found an article from Hitachi on G-vectoring through google. It seems to be from 2009! Instead of the computer controlling the throttle though, the tests were done with only the brakes being controlled. The anaylysis of "expert drivers" is interesting. Thought I'd share on this thread...

They should be able to do a lot... it's just how much $$ they want to put into it. It's amazing what they have done to sportbikes in the last few years; traction, yaw, angle, how high the front tire is allowed to come off the ground, certain amount of sliding (drifting)... clutchless up/down shifts (rev matching), real-time suspension adjustments. Of course all that adds like $10 grand to the bike;)
