Katie,
The line I chose was the inside because that was where all the braking traction
was (drier than the outside). The off-camber bump actually helped the car to
rotate and the torque of the MR2 helped me get back up to speed. I kept it
tight on the cones and was still able to carry decent speed through the sweeper.
As far as secrets go I know two other local MR2 drivers who know a few!! : )
- Derek
