Which circuit layout is best/more fun/friendlier to stuff without 400bhp?

I think the choices are national and sportscar which I believe are the following two?

Bottom one of the two is best. You get to do the banking of the oval along the start finish straight. Thats the same circuit they use for BTCC, although for trackdays they sometimes run a chicane on the first bend to slow it down a bit

ive done the top one twice and the bottom once, in a 5 turbo, found the shorter top one more fun that the bottom one as when you come of the oval, its easy to loose it and crash lol

PMSL.

Yep, two speeds. Full on foot to the floor and stopped. If it takes a concrete barrier to stop, so be it.

What's gonna be kinder to a 400BHP car? Not taking it to either.

The first track looks like a fetus and the second, a dinosaur asking for "moar pls".

Thanks for your help, I think I prefer dinosaurs to feotuses so I'll go for that one lol
