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.

How old is Adam??
I'm refering to children as young as 6 with very low ability and they are very small indeed. When the kids ability is better then move them up but I think they should be at least 10 before joining the adults
