The other guys are right - Judicous application of throttle is key. Another thing is that these cars, being as light as they are, have a tendancy to "wash out" when going around a corner or curve and encountering any washboard or rough surface. Know the roads you drive on the same way that you would if you were riding a motorcycle.
I would also advise that you take your car to a couple of local Auto-Crosses to learn how to drive it with the power down.
We will be holding a race and possibly an HPDE at Brainerd International Raceway over Memorial Day weekend. In the HPDE or HPCCC (High Performance Car Control Clinic) - we will pair up owner/drivers with seasoned instructors for some high speed touring around the track. We are also contemplating putting on an Auto Cross as well during the same weekend.
