I will add that what you mentioned was one more adjustment I made that brought my times down even further.
Apology accepted

I found it really helpful to add it at one of my reference points. When I first tried moving my 'butt off' movement back before braking I wasn't doing it consistently in the right place.

Also... it makes you realize that you can brake later and harder, because it's one less thing to worry about at turn-in. When you're about to turn in and you don't have to move your butt around a lot, there isn't anything going on... so you realize you can move your markers up a little bit, since you've taken care of the movement way back beforehand.
