The car was at its fastest, but it was so nervous under braking

Suspect if you don't have adjustable rear arms your rear toe settings are out of whack. That can make car feel very nervous .

I'd put most of your handling ills with rear spring rate that is too high front that might not be high enough and toe that is off a bit.

And while you saw marginal improvement with a6 in Autocross if you optimized coilover setup for A6 (-3.5 front and -2.5 rear ) with neutral rear toe and slight toe out up front suspect you'd see couple second improvement on Laguna Seca.
