Sean,
Here's a tip for you. Try this.
First, you may be slowing down _too_ much. That's bad, because it takes air
off the rear spoiler.
Practice with the racing line. The markers are decent for this track.
Before you let up on the gas for the corner, pre-load the brakes just a
_tad_. This may help you keep the car straight. NOTE - I _think_ this
applies at Michigan. I haven't started practice there yet, but this trick
helps a ton at places like Richmond, and Richmond is basically a troll-sized
Michigan :)
Also, you don't have to let up on the gas much here. Just 1/4 throttle or
so.
Letting up too much, going in too slow, etc... will get you into worse
trouble here than going in to hot. You can deal with too hot as you'll just
wash up a bit.
Start off by purposely going in too hot, then back off a little more each
time until you find just the right amount. Of course, this will change as
your tires wear and the fuel burns off as the car will become tighter,
especially off the corners.
Finally, you get back into the gas pretty early here. Don't just floor it.
Feather the gas in slowly. You want to be back at full throttle just as the
car is pointing straight again.
Any combination of the above or all will help.
