Do the speed bump trick they show at the novice training day. Drift slightly to the right till the wheels start to hit the lane dividers. Relate that location to a fixed spot on your hood. (I use a spot on my windshield wipers) once you are familiar with that spot you can line the track cones just to the right of the spot on your hood. You will be hugging the cones at full speed in no time.
