It's physics, I've even played with it and seen it work on the newer Corvette with their built-in g meter in the HUD. I don't know if you maybe misunderstood what I meant.
How about you actually take a physics class instead of pretending you understand it because you read the "g meter" while beating on a corvette you don't own at work.
