My acceleration is the pedal that is on the right side, regardless of speed, ramp, radius, cubitus, abra-cadabra and other factors. What is yours?

calculate the circumference of a complete circle equal to the radius of curvature of the the ramp.
divide the speed of the vehicle into the circumference to determine how long it would take to complete such a circle.
multiply the speed by 4 and divide by the time to complete the circle.
4*39/(PI*29*2/39)=33.4 m/s^2

The acceleration is given by the centripital acceleration equation of V^2/R So in your case (39)^2/29 = 52.44 m/s^2
