I've heard of stock height cars with Rcomps flip on turns.

It's been known to happen.

All it takes is a softly sprung top-heavy car and an overly aggressive driver. Slam the car into a turn (or get goofy in a slalom) and the car will almost instantly rock over onto the bump stop. With street tires, hitting the bump stop that hard is usually enough of a jolt to make the tire slide. With race tires, it won't be. Yank the car hard enough and the outside tires will stick, allowing the momentum of the weight of the car to toss the car onto its roof.
