Best Answer
As far as I know, there is no way to set a secondary calendar as the default selection in Google Calendar.
Here are two workarounds which could perhaps make your life easier.
Workaround 1: Using keyboard shortcuts
In your screenshot, you have selected the area from 00:00 to 02:30 with your mouse. Now, the cursor is in the "What"-field.
Not the optimal solution, but at least Tab, c, Tab, Enter is most of the time faster than using the mouse.
Workaround 2: Using a client calendar application
Perhaps you can connect your Google Calendar account to some client calendar application which provides the option to select a secondary calendar as the default calendar for events.
For iOS there is a paid app called Week Calendar which is pretty awesome and allows to select a default calendar or allows you to create template events.

For OS X the default Calendar application provides the option to select a default calendar.

Of course, this is no solution if you prefer to use the Google Calendar web interface.
