Here is some footage from my visit to the very (very!!) nice track called Rudskogen near Oslo. There had been a drift competition days before, so there where a lot of slippery rubber just outside the racingline. Besides that it is a fantastic and challenging track with a lot of elevation. youtu.be/zO9tOKlQIw0

Cool. Down shifts sound great. Suggest TC1 for track use.

I go for the extra safety in the higher level TC. It might just be in my head, though...!? :-D

I think it’s a very nice track indeed! The footage doesn’t do it justice. There are quite some elevation that doesn’t really show on the screen. The backstraight goes into a very long right turn, called “Angsten”, which can be translated to “The Fear”. :-D That straight goes over a crest, so you can’t see the turn, then it goes down. Now you can see the beginning of the turn, but not where it goes. Down the hill you must downshift and begin to turn in - blind! It feels scary!! EVERY time I went through that corner, I was pissed that I didn’t bring some more speed, thinking “next time!”. But there just were some kind of mental blocking! :-D. (Amateur!)
