Slicks probably aren't a good idea for a track novice though, IMO.

I don't know if it's still the case with the more recent engine choices in Westfields, but back in the day, you had to be VERY careful of what the engines oil system could cope with, before running slicks on a circuit. With many engines they HAD to be dry slumped, to avoid engine damage. Some, like the Zetec had exceptional wet sumps like the Raceline available, which could cope OK. But do check what your sump arrangement can cope with before just jumping in.
