    I recommend trying to use Pete's line through there. You're running the literbike line on a 50HP machine! There's tons more speed you can carry by getting on the gas hard BEFORE the airfence and holding it wide open all the way to the first apex cone. You'll be knee down before the cone, and can use lean angle to scrub speed instead of hard braking stright up and down.

    From 10 into 11 there is no straight. The stand it up to brake line often ends with two bikes in the grass.

    I've tried that line before, but it seems like I don't have enough rear suspension. I end up scraping HARD.

    It's odd, a lot of my passes usually end up coming on the OUTSIDE of 10, not the inside.

    Turn in harder before the airfence and apex TIGHT to the curb/ramp to gain clearance across the bump. let your acceleration carry you out to the edge of the pavement outside T10 AFTER the bump.

    This is important stuff. IMO the tight line out of 10 on a small bike is dangerous. Other riders trying to pass have no idea where you're going to turn for 11, plus, they are going faster and will be coming across your line. The outside line is more predictable and shaped like an S.
