The course with more cones will actually keep you more technical. When I raced the Mazda Rev It Up thing a few years back they literally had the course lined with cones. If you even touched one, it was a half second fault. You had to know which racing line to follow or you were screwed.

first vid was a nice long course. one of the regions i race at has courses with avg. atleast 70sec long which is pretty awesome. the focus dude did a pretty good job of looking ahead but needed to keep both hands on the wheel and i dunno why he shifted. and geez that course has so many cones and its outlined on top of that, must be nice. that 3rd vid is like hardly a course, super short and so simple. surprised they let the passenger hold the camera while racing too.
