I don't see a need for this at all.
We have a Novice class already for drivers who are just getting this figured out.
You want the new guys to have more fun by taking the competition away from the experienced guys...
This does not solve a problem it only exchanges one for the other.
Most newer good drivers are not getting the lap times they think they should be getting due to lack of car preparation. If they prepared their cars better for the class they would be amaized how much better they would place.
I "addopted" several cars/drivers in the early 90's when I was Porsche-less and taught set-up. I got to drive and they got their cars set up for free and instruction how to continue the process when our time was over. They all went from mid pack cars to class winners. All I did was set-up, no instructing.
The only interesting idea I see here is having instructor and non instructor classes, but then that would create the issue of "Drivers" not wanting to become instructors because they will never be able to win their class like they currently can do...
Just shifting one more problem for another...
And I don't understand the theory that a 1 or 2 year guy should be as good as a 10 year guy. Anything worth doing well takes practice. Tell the new guy to do research on driving, set up and get as much seat time as possible. Letting them know they will get a little better at each event should be enough to keep them coming back for more.
When I go mountain biking with my more experienced friends with 10 times the money in their rides I eat their dust because they are better riders, not just because they have more expensive equipment.
When they start handicapping F-1 drivers based upon their time in the sport you may have a point, but until then....
