Try

http://www.nurburgring.org.uk/

This has just about all you will need to know. S&M has been and he did it in about 9:26 I think. Look him up and I'm sure he will give you a few pointers. I think though its best to concentrate on getting round than setting lap times, particularly for a beginner. Why not try Lohens track day on Bank holiday Monday

http://www.mini2.com/forum/uk-ireland-discussion-event-planning/91876-lohen-trackday-bruntingthorpe-29-august-2005-now-photos.html

Here's the link. The last trip to Brunty was a blast and it is a good intro to track days. Plenty of fast cars will be there.
