I have. All it takes is going a little wide or a little hot and getting onto the marbles. It happened to me. The grip just evaporated. The turn is also off camber and gets more off camber the farther out you go. I've seen many cars go off there, and have only spent three days at TH. My words were actually a copy of the track worker's. She said, "Turn 3? Nobody ever goes off there!" Then she laughed and waved me forward. That was the sum total of her lecture.

That was also the only time I ever took a trip off track. For the record.

Im upgrading final drive and LSD, hopefully be done by the end of May follow by a dyno tune by Vishnu to make it smooth hahaha

Ya it would be great to ride with someone who has done bypass first, NCRC likely won't have a coach to show you first, but no worry, when in doubt just take it slow, you will get it after few times, hope my video above helps. If I make it, feel free to ride with me, I'm not that good but have done bypass few times and can share you what i know.
