It is a good study .... except for the 7200 lb side force. To get that from a 3200 lb vehicle you need a friction coeficant of greater than 2.

Not likely to get much past .8 so in a static (constant turn) condition the vehicle could not roll over since less than half of the calculated force could be generated.

Its a good start at looking at how things work but it makes a very bad initial assumption.
