Up the ramp straight is certainly doable.

That's a very good point.
I remember some teams talking about playing with how tight their rollers were back in the day. This makes it harder for the rollers to free spin, which increases traction when not going straight, but also will make it slightly harder to strafe. It's something worth playing with.
