In the normal orientation, T2 is a decreasing radius turn after a short straight as well. Obviously braking on the front straight and turning into T9 will be done at a much higher speed, but I suspect it shouldn't be anything too crazy.

I'm pretty sure Speedy Goat or VCMC has done autox events on the road course in reverse direction before. Naturally, they added a bunch of cones to make it more interesting, so speeds are much lower. But I don't know how much they have used cones to alter the existing turns.
For now, my wishful thinking would say that exiting T7a shouldn't be too different than exiting T6 in the normal configuration -- in both cases, you're still exiting towards a wall. The car would be coming into T7a hot and be less stable than the normal orientation going into T6 -- the car should be transitioning after T7b, and hence the lower stability. But that instability / transition should be manageable?
I'll keep an eye out for the T6 bump though. Thanks for mentioning that.
