this brings to mind a cool screw up I did, I reworked the suspension
on a truck that is used 90% offroad. one of the side effects of the
mods was that the roll center was above the cg. when you cornered the
sensation was that you felt like you were in a boat. the toyota leaned
in on curves. the downside was that it tipped over on road if you
overcooked a corner.
