Our tracks aren't slow really. Most of our tracks are 30-50 years old and as such aren't huge. There is one track thats around a 90 second lap thats nice but it's an old track thats extended and is also rather bumpy in inconvenient places.

Our shorter tracks are mostly around 2.1kms (1.3 Miles) and the longer about 3.1kms (1.9 Miles) Mind you too our cars aren't slow. Most of our 86 guys (Sprints every 3 weeks or so) are keeping up with the top cars including Porsches etc. At Lakeside some of us are only 2-3 seconds behind 997 GT3's. We don't have to many inexperienced people and those guys get tons of help and some professional instruction before we let them out with us.

You make do with what you have. Any track is fun though.
Here's one of my first runs (only have a couple videos at this point in time) of The longer circuit. Good fun and cool to see yourself trying different things and getting a better idea after you've finished the day about what works and what doesn't. Skip to the 5:00 mark or so if you don't want to see me cruising around behind some slower cars.
