[Supras] Oil accumulator vs. pumping air

 Question for you Geoff; what if one were to run a track with some big
banking? I will probably venture to a NC track at some point were they
use part of the Nascar oval for the course configuration. Also one of
the other tracks at Summit has a replica of the banked Karrussel turn
from Nordshleif at Nurburgring. Could a banked turn like those cause
more of a problem?
