My question: who the hell put that concrete wall on the outside of the corner?!!!

It helps keep the parts on the track. 

It's best not to stare at the walls, even in videos.

That wall is nothing compared to what you see going in to T3.
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
    To realize the value of nine  months:
    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.

T3 really isn't that bad.  It's T10 that really should be adjusted?

I'd disagree, but what do I know.?

It is a visual/mental thing IMO.

To me, 3 has a lot more going on technically and visually...and therefore mentally.

10 is just like...how bad is the transition gonna hurt?

The wall in front of you doesn't get as close...hopefully. ;)

I wonder that every time I hit turn 12 at Road A. It really is an exercise in mental calisthenics not to look at it.

(Glad everyone was ok)

The absence of target fixation solves many problems.

SO...does that dude watch the video of himself getting hit and pronounce "I'm Not Dead Yet!"...

Google Rob Dages. He was pretty busted up, but did recover.
