in westhill reverse, maybe regular havent tried, the tar strip by the grass is acting exactly like grass. i am right before corner 6, on the right of the track.
I went off in a race a few car lengths before that patch once. I let myself roll to it because I thought "OK cool I can recover from this side road". Imagine my surprise when that didn't help me one bit.
If something looks like an attractive place to recover back to the track it should have the decency to actually be a good place to do so.
