Something like this Buriram FIA Grade 2 circuit in Thailand .... nice big, wide carpark with very little for an out of control driver or rider to hit.

Lakeside sure seems like fun --- but obviously it is intimidating for Joe Bloggs who wants to cut some hot laps in his Toyota MR2 road car -- complete with the latest 1987 safety features, as in seat belts and that's it -- and needs to drive home afterwards.
The walls are an awful lot closer at Lakeside, compared to a circuit that complies and exceeds the latest modern safety standards like Buriram.
