Some tracks have novice only days,very easy going and everybody more or less on the same level.
Book a day,and when you get in there and sign in,book an instructor for a session,normally 20 mins,cost around £20-30,they will show you the ideal lines,braking points etc etc and give you a few hints.
But beware,it's highly addictive.
Good point ALWAYS use an instructor, people spend thousands making their car "quicker" but the biggest improvements and best way to go faster is keep the car standard and LISTEN to the instructor. Try to go slow at first and get the driving right, the speed comes naturally later.
