A car system (3 or more wheels on flat ground with a steering capability) has a top acceleration on straight line that will ever remains lower to what humans can sustain.

Actually, that lap record from Spa has already been beaten since Q2 in 2018 (!!) by cars which were built very much under regulated rules. Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari SF71H, 1:41.501), Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes W09, 1:41.533) and Kimi Räikkönen (Ferrari SF71H, 1:41.553) beat the time set by Porsche in Q2, before rain hindered them from setting even faster times in Q3. Also, just now (29 August 2020), Lewis obliterated that record once more with his monstrous Mercedes-AMG F1 W11 EQ Performance! He achieved a new lap record with an 1:41.252 (!!), more than half a second quicker than Neel Jani. Furthermore, Valtteri Bottas in the second Mercedes was also slightly quicker. I think this shows you just how incredible these F1 machines are when even a completely unregulated Porsche can't come close to the times set by cars which operate well within a set of regulations. That's F1.

This is something that could actually have a huge impact on a lap time as it was mentioned in this video that the g forces in the Porsche reached upwards of 4g on the driver's head and neck. It may not be a traditional way to drive a race car and if it does start to happen it will be frowned upon by motor sport purists, but finding any way to maximize speed by eliminating the negative effects of atmospheric pressures is what the engineering behind this sport is all about.

Racing drivers are having it worse even though they statisticly need to endure lower G-Forces. Reason you may ask? In a Car, the G-Forces mainly constrain the Y-axis (Horizontal/to left and right) and X-axis (Horizontal/to front and rear) while Fighter Pilots mainly edure Z-axis (Vertical/on Up and Down). On Z-axis force your Spine and Neck are stabalycing you, on X and Y your muscles have to take over that part.

They didn't really try to hard to beat that record. They didn't have the one-off tyres on the car, just off-the-shelf tyres. The driver, Tandy, never even drove the car before trying the record at Brand Hatch. And they still got to 0.1 seconds of Scotts record. I'm quite sure the Evo can do low 36 or high 35 second runs on that track in that layout, WITH the right driver and tyres.
