Thanks for the update Craig... and you've also answered the question I was go to ask you about the 12H of Sebring. 
I rarely spin a car in any race in iRacing, whether road or oval. I wonder whether this is part of the reason the Ford GT is being retired, I had no indication that I was about to spin, it just snapped. Its not an excuse, I am ultimately responsible for the screw up, but I was not overdriving the car.
My experience with that car is that it seems to have a peak in the engine braking force. I found that when in anything other than a straight line I had to be very consistent in my braking and downshifting and if something disrupted that then I had to get all my braking done in a straight line. I looped it several times when testing cars before the race... Turn 1 especially was terrible for me. Every time I race it, I need a few hours of practice to re-learn it.
