It would enhance the standard but then they already have the National Series to enter. I think part of the idea seems to be is that it gives the 'lesser' drivers their own series, sort of a clubman championship rather than the main National Series for the Elite (i.e. F1 and F2). Also you wouldn't want to compete with the National Series and potentially reduce entries in that.
As Tony and others said the Radio race Car Series was an excellent series at the time and although nobody was excluded as such it seemed that there were less of the elite drivers that entered (correct me if I'm wrong as I was a kid at the time). I do remember making the odd A final though and there is absolutely no way I would have done that if it had been the elite drivers.
Lots of good points for discussion anyway and it would seem that it definitely has mileage judging by the reaction.
