To reiterate what Nick said... if you're not scared entering the esses flat-out at RFR, at least just a little bit, you should get out of the car, 'cause you're nuts. (Well, maybe not if you're driving a 90hp MR2 or something.) I've got a cage in my car, and I still touch the brakes on the way in to reassure myself they're there.

The simple fix however is just to lift the throttle as you cross the S/F line. Then just give the car a little maintenance throttle to keep the drivetrain from slacking and cruise through the esses. That isn't scary at all once you've done it a few times.
