Definitely have a kiddies heat. Clubs like Stockport have been going for years as they support kiddies and give them a Novice race to enter.
It is a novice race though, and there may be adults in it but they soon move out (well most do) and it also humbles 'superstars' who turn up and haven't raced at the club before as hey have to race in the Novice heat.
The race after is marshalled by the kids and their dads.
If anyone gives the kiddies jip they get a telling straight away.
Personally I would love it, as it means I might be able race a buggy this summer with my lad.
I also think the novice/kids race should act as a wildcats race where monster trucks etc are also able to race. It let's all comers have a go with whatever electric car they have to experience the club. This is a policy that works brilliantly at stockport.
