That track is bumpy as heck, blind, and very fast/high commitment. Example:

Turn 1: 5th gear, no brakes, lift, hit HUGE bump, hug inside concrete wall, flat to exit (nasty rumble strip if you overcook)

Then turn 2: 6th gear, 100% blind, off camber so if you over cook, you're going out to the tire wall, no brakes, and complex double apex

My favourite is turn 8: 6th gear, lift, turn in at 200km/h, don't miss the apex - split second to get the braking done and down to 4th while going from loaded up turning right to loaded up turning left.

The guy who rented the car after me on the next day stuffed it in turn 8 into the wall on lap 3.

Good times!
