I too use the 9 & 3 position (on most wheels), but I DO lock my thumbs (snug, but not a death grip) in the wheel. I find that it provides a lot better feedback, and it is a more natural position for your hand. Yes, I am fully aware of the broken-thumb-effect. However, if I'm ever in a position where contact is imminent, or realize that I have just become a "passenger", I will rapidly unhook my thumbs and remove my hands from the wheel completely a split second before impact.
