Hi Wiza

I'm following your threads with great interest. Concernig your problem i
can't say very much as i have no insight to the code (neither yours nor to
that of no limit) but i guess i see where the problem is.
when the car leaves a loop its banking is drilled by 360 degrees compared to
the banking at which it entered.
It's difficult to describe, but if you watch a car going through a loop from
above and observe for example its front and its end point you can interpret
their movement as a rotation around the vertical axis if you leave the
vertical components of the movement out (when you make it more a corkscrew
it will become more obvious).
Regarding your image i can see that in your case the movement watched from
above is similar to a S curve.

I hope this helpes you to find the problem!

Regards Roman
