Curt;

Looking at the diagram of the track,it is very similar to a lot of road courses used on or at NASCAR tracks....If the run you are talking about is the big left hand sweeper,it looks as if it uses the track apron,and they usually have little or no banking....The Nashville track is very similar and uses a very similar left hand sweeper on the track apron before getting on the banked front stretch...It is easy to get "loose" in this sweeper,I've tried running it low,middle and high and the results are all about the same.. Basically what I do is run it in the middle and run a steady speed that I'm comfortable with.... This sweeper is pretty quick,looked at the speedometer a few times going thru it and was doing from low 60 mph to high 60 mph before hitting the straght....
