I'd agree with Hipposleek in stating that it depends upon the slalom. At our first event last week, the slalom was an increasing one, and it seemed that pretty much everyone, me included, was accelerating through it, then braking hard upon exit of the last gate before the next left-hander. And when I say it was fast, a guy in a '99 SS camaro was hitting 60-65 coming out of the last gate.
Also, I've noticed that I can cut the cones MUCH closer than I visualized initially in a slalom. Every run, I turned in closer than the last to the point that I thought I was taking out cones, but I didn't pick up a single cone all day, so turn in early and close, and if you pick up a cone, just remeber what made you do it next lap!

PS: Lauren, I may be coming down to your region, (NEOKLA, right?) for one of the June events. We only auto-x once a month in our region, (Ozarks Mountain region,) and it's not enough for me! Any other 240 drivers auto-x down there?
