Everything there looks correct except the 8 G accel number. The theoretical limit of 150 MPH was based on a friction coefficient of 1 I believe. Since modern tire technology can exceed that and since the car has a wing for downforce the limit is much higher. It's likely that the coefficient of friction is around 3 based on the performance of the car. This means at launch it can pull 3 G's. As the speed increases and the wing starts to push down on the car the G can increase. The max G is probably in the middle of the run somewhere and would be above the average of 4.5 G. A good guess would be around 6 G and would require the downforce to be twice the car weight at whatever speed this occurs.
