My understanding of it would be that at the exact point where the car tips it means that more weight is past the outter edge (center?) of the lower wheel than there is below it which means you could measure the angle and then work out exactly where the center of gravity is.
You would have to make sure the tyres wont slip either as you would typically have quite high angles.
example:
If the car tips at 60 degree's then you would take the center line of the car and draw a line away from 60degree's so it connects to the outside edge of the tyre.
note: this is only my interpretation of that suggestion, i might be totally wrong
