I agree T2 may be hard to do perfectly, but I really isn't that bad.

Use the groove as your guide to braking.  When it gets really black,
shift down to 2nd and move to the left -- I may even get the LF
on the grass sometimes.

Mosport is another of my favorite tracks -- my Ferrari loves it too :)

Overall, the groove is very helpful in determining corner speeds.
If the groove is kinda-dark (but not pitch black) slow down a bit.
When it is pitch-black, you better be in 2nd :)   This is especially
helpful at the 'ring.

Jason.
