My local tracks don’t require a downshift to 2nd, but I’ve encountered a similar situation for 4->3 downshifts if I wait until I’ve started turning to make the downshift. As long as I downshift where there’s no lateral load, I have no trouble in the same corner entry, and there’s really no good reason for me to be shifting while turning at my local tracks. I’ve just made it a conscious effort to shift a bit earlier- before turn in.
My assumption is that the powertrain is leaning on the engine/trans mounts and altering the position of 3rd gear.
I’ll be interested to hear if others are encountering this.
