HA HA nice drawing!!! It shows exactly what you did wrong.
Pushing and releasing the throttle like that upsets the balance of the car...eventually it'll spin you. The ideal way to take a slolam with cones at constant distance (ie. all cones are 80ft. apart) is to brake going into the slolam down to the speed at which you can take the rest of the slolam. It'll take a time or two to figure out this speed, but once you do, brake down to it and use part throttle to stay there until you can throttle out of the last cone. Use as little throttle modulation as possible to keep the car balanced.
Now varying distance slolams (ie. 40ft. between first cones, 60 ft. between middle cones, 80ft. between last cones or some variation) will require some throttle modulation/application/lifting. In this case, just make any changes in throttle application as smooth as you possibly can.
