    I've tried all settings I could find, but my ball rarely seems to smoothly through loops. Slow objects are fine, but fast ones always seem to bounce off at some point.

    You could try either higher mesh collider resolution or smaller fixed timestep.

    It seems a problem with the MeshCollider joints between faces.
    if the ball has high speed and pass from one face to another, it could happen that the new face have a sharp angle comparing to the previous one.

    Try with a very small fixed timestep only to check
