So to clarify:
Coming to braking point from 160+mph 6th gear
-Brake, clutch pedal depressed, and shift into neutral then into third
-before moment of turn in heel and toe to rematch and releas clutch
-then turn in
Getting into weight transfer is a different discussion and goes into why you brake into corners, left foot braking, and car rotations (etc.)

Have you actually been on a track where you can hit 160+ mph before?
The fastest track out west, Cal, er, Auto Club Speedway, uses one of the longest and biggest ovals NASCAR has on their schedule, and even with an M6 I can only get it up to about 145 mph. Car(s) that are capable of hitting more than (160+mph) that are either racecars with massive down-force that uses some sort of fancy Hewland with straight cut gears and sequential shift (ala Grand-Am Prototypes I think) and/or tube-framed cars like the GT2/3 classes which none of them will use traditional clutches.
Even Ferrari's and Porsche Carrera GTs struggle to hit 160+ mph on street tires at Auto Club Speedway. Have you any idea how hard it is for ANY street car to hit 160+ on most tracks?
Have you actually driven on a track before?
