A more experienced driver looked at the video and said "you were doomed as soon as you made the first correction. You should have just tried to go off and get the car slowed down from that point" (rather than try and catch it).

i agree 1000%. it all happens so fast even if it looks slo-mo in a video.
i've been close to going off in that corner a few times. thanks for doing it for me! just kidding, coming down the hill there is my favorite part of the track.
watching the video and especially your hands on the wheel during the attempted save (i am not criticizing btw -- great try) i can understand the more experienced driver's point, especially since the runoff area is really not that great and it is almost never graded smooth.
