What a great way to get use to the handling charastics of this platform! Every car I buy goes through an autocross before I do ANY mods.
So, try to keep a neutral throttle pedal through the slaloms and if they're equal length slaloms, initiate the first turn at the same speed that you'd exit the last. Also, since I can't see what you're doing with the wheel, I'll just go with my general rule for slaloms, turn smoothly and the same amount on each side of center ... also start turning before you get to the cone.
As for the rest of the course, it kinda looked like you were reacting to the elements not so much looking past them and forecasting where you need to be on the line to set up for the next apex.
Finally, don't be afraid to let it come out a bit. No one is going to call you a drift hoon if you get a little braking oversteer or controlled powerslide to get the car to rotate! Besides, it is a little fun.
Don't be afraid to push the car past the limit (reasonably) while at autocross, it's the perfect environment to safely lose control and test the boundaries of the car.
Keep at it! More seat time = better driver!
