My guess is that it was just the traction control and stability kicking in. The sport mode on the FRS/BRZ has always been quite aggressive, and even more-so on the MY13-MY16 models.
If you are attempting to trail brake or have steering input while also braking, the car can kick in with stability control. Stability control can also intervene midcorner if you happen to lift off throttle or brake suddenly
With regard to your clutch, hard to say. If you have any video if your driving sessions, you can review how good your heel-toe or shifting was. Maybe you had excessive slipping on track and that caused a change in the character of your clutch afterward

Okay, I appreciate your input. I can do some trial and error next time I'm at the track day with holding the traction control button instead of just doing sport mode. I've just been hesitant and still am doing that because I don't want to total my daily and find that traction control may have prevented that a few times on track.
