as its only £20 im tempted, but i do a bit of racing (karts/club 100)
but i think having to let people past all the time will piss me off and i wont enjoy it (1.2 8v)
is it a decent standard of driving ?
is it worth it and who else is on ??

Don't hold people up, just pull over when your on the straight so people can get past you shouldn't have to lift really most should be able to get past.
It's a great track, and well worth having a go, just go out on a Novice session.
I had some knob in a Celica holding me up on the spring Action day, I got past but a bloke in a RS4 had to take to grass to get past.

Don't worry about it mate, my first time out was in a 1.2 16v and I was looking for overtaking opportunities on the Impreza in front of me until he started getting into the swing of it You will have to move over but it all depends on where you happen to be on track, sometimes it seems quiet, other times busy. 1st time though you'll just be buzzing about being on track and won't have chance to get annoyed.
