By the way, @kask2_6.0, do you have enough time to brake after the hill? I was carrying so much after a few sessions that it was hard to slow down enough for the sweeper. I imagine it might be harder for two wheels.
Are you talking about the hill at the track entrance? You do have enough time to brake after the hill (once car is settled) it just takes quite a bit of commitment. For me that section is actually easier on two wheels. The brakes on a bike are far better and you enter that corner A LOT faster.

Glad you liked the track
