Just before the big left hand showcase turn there was a right to left
chicane that left me a bit perplexed on how to take.  It forced a choice,
either enter the showcase turn tight to help unkink the chicane, or crawl
through the chicane to allow time to get back towards track right before
entering the showcase turn.  I decided on the former, turning the showcase
turn into a big constant radius double apex turn.  Anybody else willing to
share their approach and why?  Ben?

Here's a video of my best fun run.  Nothing like a little
first-race-after-adding-turbos'itis to make you drive silly =P.
