I think we can all agree that smoother is gooder in general.

I would submit to the collective here that different conditions- ie: road surface, type of car, tires, will require different techniques to be most effective with the cards you are dealt for that day.

Don't think there is one "right" way to do it, just an ongoing challenge to find and use all the traction you have available in a given set of circumstances.

I know in our "small" lot for autox, even our best drivers look to be all "arms and elbows" flying around. They are also some of the deceptively smoothest looking drivers on the larger courses.

I think its part of looking ahead. When you can see farther ahead, you give your computer brain more time to calculate the correct solution. With tighter corners coming up on you quickly on a course you don't have memorized, more corrections will be occurring, and you'll be tossing the car around more.

Well said.
