Here is a good example to follow from my co-driver at Nationals. He used different hand placements throughout the course and pre-turned before the tight sections. The result is a smooth run (compared to me) and 3rd fastest run on day 2. I have been taking many notes from him so I can improve.

Getting a bit of the old drift action, eh?

Okay, since a couple of people asked:
I drove a 350Z up in Packwood this year at the national tour. Although the owner claims that it is the best slaloming car ever, in my hands it had a strong tendency to understeer -- combine that with a power steering pump that couldn't keep up with me, and it at least felt like I had to turn the wheel a lot more than most cars in the slaloms...

Gonna have to agree with everyone else... 9 & 3 works for me. How wide are these slaloms you're going through? Not too much steering angle seems to be needed because of how quick the S2K's steering is.

I agree with Orthonormal -- I found the Elise unexpectedly boring to drive on the street because its steering is so slow, which makes it feel less agile than it should.
