Can I suggest the following:
Quote:
Anyone who wishes to have reverse enabled puts an R sticker on their truck to signify to marshalls that the truck has reverse. The marshall can safely monitor the R-truck to see if it can recover itself.
This prevents the marshall being stranded in the middle of the track as the truck reverses out of a potential problem.
Anyone who uses reverse must use discretion when reversing out of a situation into possible traffic and this discretion will be monitored during the race, with possible penalties if it is felt that discretion is not used.

Using reverse may be an advantage in that the driver can recover from a situation quicker than a marshall can recover the car.
Please feel free to comment as appropriate
