Nice vid Rusty, you're doing great! Seems smooth and calm and you're looking through the corners for lining up good lines, watching instructor's signals and corner workers, working the passing signals, etc. All good things!

My only $0.02 on that vid is hand (and maybe seat) position. IMHO, they should be telling you to plant your hands at 9 and 3 on the steering wheel and try to just keep them there unless a tight turn absolutely demands it. Getting this to work out for you may require adjusting your seat position backwards a little to get your knees out of the way of the lower hand, and/or adjusting steering tilt, etc. It's tricky to get the cockpit configured just right sometimes, but it really makes life easier once it's all Just Right.

ETA: Looking back at your previous vids, it seems you had your hands/seat/etc in a better position last time around. Experimenting?
