Thank you. I tried several things while I was there and filmed 3 other sessions as well. So I have observations not present to every one. You are both correct with your observations. If I leave it in third too long I often saw the rev warning light flash, set at 7000 rpm. I've decided it is worth shifting into fourth between turns 4 and 7, four times, even if only for a moment.

Stop hitting second going into the corkscrew as it screws me up moments later. I do not need the torque as seems natural, but facing straight down hill, gravity works fine to accelerate the Z here.
