The level 2 drop in is for those have done at least the first 2 classes and want some practice before the 3rd or 4th. Riders with accreditation can still ride it though.
Because not many know what a level 2 drop in (no explanation on the website) it is often empty or only a handful of riders there so it's not going to be ideal for race practice, more for working on fitness and gaining confidence. The Tuesday night endurance DST is the best place to practice racing.
Even if your racing intentions are sprint orientated i'd still do the endurance one - there is not much opportunity for sprint racing and starting out you dont want to specialise too much. The ocassional saturday races will have some sprint events (something like a 500s, kilo or keirin) - but if it is match sprinting you want then thats only about twice a year.
