Motorsport Ranch in Cresson is a bitch and it eats my lunch every time.

There's decreasing radius turns, blind crests, subtle and small camber changes mid turn if you miss is very bad, off camber turns going over hill crests, and most of all...this turn called Ricochet. Its a fast and significantly off camber sweeper. As you can see you are cooking down a pretty long straight. Its tricky because you turn in early and aim the car towards the curbs on the inside like you want to drive over them. Then the car just falls off to the right. If you let up and don't keep adding throttle then you run out of room. This turn is where I really learned to trust using the throttle to rotate the car.

The problem is I'm coming out of the decreasing radius 180 before it faster so I'm having trouble adjusting...god forbid I slow down.

Here's an early example of missing it...
