Larry if your goal is to brake later and you are looking for new reference points, then going to YouTube or Vimeo works very well for that, just stopping the video at various points and looking at everything on/around the track. If your goal is to increase your turning speed, I would use my same reference points only difference being that I would apply less pressure on the brake pedal. If you don't feel comfortable with that at first by yourself, go out with an instructor in his car so your eyes will acclamate to the increased speed. That way you don't have to think about anything, focus on anything, or do anything except sit there and be a passenger with your eyes forward getting used to how quickly things are happening. I know for a fact that this helps to increase turning speed.  I used it on Summit Main to increase my T1 speed. By the end of the weekend my T1 speed was up 6mph. What ever your goal is, best of luck.
