Check out Rick White (POC Chief Driving Instructor) in Wayne Mello's 951 on that same corner last year:

Um, that's not lean, there's still nothing but tire hitting the ground!

Hey, does anyone have pictures showing the body roll of a 944 Turbo Cup car?

I'd imagine that the TurboCup has very little body-roll. With the 175-400 lb•in rising-rate springs, it'd probably has just 1" of compression before it hits the 400lb setting and then it won't roll much more after that.
