Personally, I think if you're new to group riding and the group is already faster and used to riding the longer distances you'd like to achieve, that just by riding with them you'll be motivated to ride harder and faster so you don't get dropped. When you're used to riding their pace, then work on your drafting.
Hang in there and have fun!
