For sure confidence matters re lap times, but it could be a two edged sword if the confidence increases faster than skill and ability to feel what the front and rear tires are doing slip angles wise. Do you run in Race setting?
Also, at Mosport, what will reward lap times is higher mid corner speed, as by and large the corners are long and one spends a lot more time cornering vs braking. Especially in T8, T2, T3 and T5a and b combo, which is treated as a single corner. Also dont forget when approaching T5a you are climbing up 3 stories, so surprisingly one doesn't need to brake very aggressively and carrying the speed until the set up for 5b yields good benefits laptime wise. As far as T8, when you brake is not all that important vs how much speed you're carrying into it and then maintaining until T9. Have bags of fun hope it helps ya a bit. Cheers!

At TMP I used SRF with PTM in Sport 2. Haven't been back there since the new pads went in. Appreciate all the advice here
