I remember seeing a story a few years ago and one of the teams built a simulator program for a car that just went for performance options, and ignored all the rules. So mega horsepower and torque, active suspension, ABS, traction control, larger aerodynamics and all the go fast things added on, and as light as possible. They calculated the G forces from directions changes would be beyond human endurance for very long and speeds so high that almost any crash would be fatal.

It was an interesting thought program of what engineers could do to a car and make it fast, but only a superhuman could drive it.
