   Depending on the type of tyres, 0.7g really pulls it up. At 0.75g, with   
   balanced slip angles, you're into a 4 wheel slide. Look into slip angles   
   for answers to your question. The tyre is, in most instances, the   
   primary determinant. The cornering force developed by a tyre in any   
   scenario depends on slip angle, load, inflation pressure, camber angle,   
   drive forces and braking forces.   
      
   Modern cars have very much improved tyres and suspension handling   
   dynamics but I very much doubt you'll be getting 0.9g with *any* modern   
   vanilla sedan because - physics.
