While I agree for the most part. it would be nice to see more kids get into the hobby and I personally feel that a class where you could pull it out of the box to meet an instant need our youth has to have would be beneficial to our hobby. I'd love to see a Novice class. Thats what I started running back in the day. Then I won three weeks in a row.....I got kicked out to stock.
