Going to post here even though Bury is miles from home .

You have a very valid point, speaking from racer with a novice child.

Adam is racing with men who have been racing for a while, irrespective of their standard. I personally think this is unfair on him AND the other drivers.... however this is due to small turnout mainly and no otherr kids

A heat for kids or a heat labelled 'novice' is good for any club. The people in this heat would expect a lower level of driving and therefore not as heated if a car comes and hits you or moves off line. If everyone in there knows, then no bad.

However, Adam loves marshalling and also volunteers a lot, but I know he is ok at it. If he wasnt I would not let him. He marshalled top heats and A final at Taplow with no complaints.

IMHO its all about looking after the kids at a local level and helping them with calm words and guidence, rather than shouting.
