I for one was a novice (Silver civic at the start)
After the days earlier off on the esses i think the majority of us took it easy there as we didnt want to pull a Jr 
The hairpin there was lots of traffic
i moved over to the left for Sportyboy at the start of the straight but i was foot flat and i might aswell have been going backwards from that vid

tbh i was well impressed with how i did . i could of pushed it harder in alot of places but as said there are alot of novice's on so you try and take that into account (alltho im not exactly a track pro).. its there day too so its not worth spoiling ... one of my cv boots came off in that session and killed my brakes with grease .. or they just got too hot so i never risked going back out for my other session  still had a laugh tho 
there were quite alot of seasoned track useser id of said too tho. some dodgey moves made by some but you allways get that and you just have to watch out for it.

That's probably more like it, and the fact he keeps the revs low.
First lap on the second video is 1:03 to the hairpin which is rather quick I think?

More time to find a cheap base car tbh. I was looking for ages before I bought the green one and I should really have held out for the silver rather than buying them both.

In terms of speeds (I was in the red Mk4 Ibiza in the first vid) I was just touching 100 on the straights, entering 1st corner around 70, coming out around 80, again around 65-70 for the esses and about 20 for the hairpin, probably around 60 for devils hairpin too
