I just make those turns in third gear to avoid the issue. I still have not felt an issue during trail braking even at Auto Club coming into turn #3 and braking from 120 to 130 down to 30 or 40 mph or so.

This is good all good stuff to how everyone is experiencing these situations. Also to note, I have a big a$$ wing and a front splitter that helps out a lot on mechanical grip so I'm sure that also plays a role in braking and so cornering.
I was joking on the trail braking, that was all me screwing up. But yes all you have to do is find an open parking lot and do a tight turn and slam the gas as if you wanted it to step out a little and power out. It will immediately cut throttle and the car will lurch and jerk through the turn even at minimum intervention. So I have to use map 4 which is like oem off=off in order to get the rear to step out a little but then there is nothing there to save it if I go too aggressive.

When I first tested it the instructors thought it was me slamming the throttle on and off through the turn and said to be more gentle on the throttle which I explained it wasn't me letting off but the traction control doing fuel cut so then I even tried to go lighter on throttle to not have it kick in and it just never worked in that situation. It does prevent you from spinning though so that's probably a good thing for actual track usage.
