First impressions from the track

Went to my first track drive yesterday, there was an f430 which crashed and 2 of these british built track cars with v6 mazda engine forgotten the name, starts with v maybe. they annihilated the csl, i think they weigh 1000kg and cost around 100k Australian. they had slicks on, wings.

You can really feel the mass the csl feels a bit heavy on track to me, there was an open wheeler there. I am thinking something lighter would be more fun like a caterham etc. Just seem to be fighting the mass, feels a bit out of place on the track but still fun. Got the tyres to melt, the kumho's i got have a 320 rating for softness guy told me a slick is 100 the lower the number the softer the tyre is that correct? Drove round in m track mode mostly should i try different next?

Cheers
