Re: Rockingham national Sunday 5th September
National is a nice circuit and CSS used to do (maybe still do) their rider schools on it.
I'm not sure it's the 'best' first time track but offers variety and left handers as well as right. Just make sure you get an instructor on the first or second sessions Any track will be fun!

It will be my 4th circuit, but it looks like a good one

Re: Rockingham national Sunday 5th September
Ha, reading Specialones comments I put 2 and 2 together and got 16!
In that case, do it! The last hairpin on to the shortest straight has an impossibly late turn in. The back two right turns are really quick, followed by a tight right up hill and a bumpy easy right before some challenging lefts. It really is a nice layout but again the instructor will take seconds off your lap
