The most challenging corners I've experienced are turn 1 at Thunderhill (counterclockwise) and turn 10 at Sears. I'd also say turn 9 at Thunderhill when running clockwise. By challenging I mean corners that are tough to get right and take at maximum speed. |

My issue with turn 12 at Road Atlanta begins with the exit of 10B. I am in second gear on exit as I approach the bridge I grab third. If you have never driven Road Atlanta, the bridge is a blind. I line up with the middle marker on the bridge and hope I am in the right spot for entering 12. Now before I reach twelve I have to grab fourth gear or I run out of revs in the middle of the corner, things just get busy. Not a complaint, but I am shifting with my left hand. This takes getting used to. A little more track time and perhaps my toughest corner will change.
