Cayuga is relatively flat and only one wall along the straightaway. I have been to shannonville but not driven it. From what I saw and talking to others, it's a good one for newbies also.

That being said, please check out the organizers of the lapping day to make sure that they will be inforcing some rules and order to make for a safe day. And if you can get someone to show you the line, that's good too.

I think Dunnville is probably best for beginners.

Comparing to Shannonville to cayuga, in my opinion Cayuga is the easier track of the two.

Both tracks are fairly safe, but you always need to respect the dangers.

Shannonville is probably more challenging to a newb depending on the track config as it can be considerably longer than Cayuga or Dunnville.

The DDT at Mosport is probably the best, but Ive been to neither of those you mention.

^ no way. There's some areas of DDT that could be very bad if you make a mistake.

I'd say TMP (Cayuga) would be the safest out of the 2 mentoned. But out of all the local tracks Dungville for sure.

^ yup....given that there are no concrete walls at Dunnville, I would say that one is the safest....
