It is a very difficult subject, I agree if you cause a crash you should 'offer' the position back at least. We have a small local club where this works and we try to Instill this on the newbies be it young or old. We have taken active approaches in slowing drivers down and with 2 young drivers it was a necessity it's taken a year but 1 has grasped it and the other is almost there.
I have a 4 year old with me now at every meeting but he knows he can't race until he can get around the track without crashing (Mardave wound down as slow as you can for it to still move) he is getting the throttle business but steering is a struggle cos his hands are so small, we practice at home around cones.
Our club members all act as refs and give constructive criticism to bad drivers after each race and even test run their cars to check its not mechanical, non of us are perfect but if we can all improve together racing is cheaper and more fun!!
