You should be taking their "learn to ride" session(s) and there you will be taught their rules - which differ from track to track. The FCV track rules that you were pointed to - many of them we designed to reflect the extreme shortness and steepness of that track. Those issues might not be a factor in a bigger, shallower track.
In fact they would be smart if they didn't let you onto the track unless you had taken their intro sessions.
