OK, for 710 freaks here ... the trick was not only the gearing but also the pipe. Which pipe? Well, ask Mark ... see if the old man remembers.

That chicane is very tricky, I must say. It feels good when you get it right. Actually it looks like a mini version of the winternats chicane!
You have a good point there. I think you have to take that s-bend in front of the driver's stand wide and then enter the chicane from a wide angle (see the video how NiMo does it). My habit is never to do that which I think is a mistake.
