@csmith12 has a great writeup on braking on this site which sums up what I try to do

Doing this at njmp T1 and T5 has pushed my braking points back as much as 100ft in each corner across my last 3 days there. I'm braking for t1 at the 2 marker instead of the 3 marker and I'm figuring out how to get to the 1 marker which is where the front expert pack brakes.

Unfortunately a large part of racing a 300 is the avoidance of braking so I don't get much practice with it as I would like
What about where you want to come OFF the brakes?
