TravisJB: From your description, it seems that you are braking and initiating the turn simultaneously, then braking at least part way through the turn. This technique adds braking forces and geometry change to already complicated cornering forces. Have you tried that section of track by completing all of your braking while on the straight and running as deep as possible, then accelerating through the turn. This technique will isolate braking to the straight, and allow you to concentrate fully on traction while turning...the result being reduced time on this section and a position (or two)
