If the goal is to truly bring in new drivers, a new class is not the answer. You need to focus on just getting them to to track to just drive. Or bring the track out to the public.
The average person buying RC today know nothing of RC racing. It's not what they've been exposed to. More now see their first RC in a " Dude Perfect" YouTube video.
What about a time trial class? Works for the real cars at track days. How many of us spent hours playing Grand Turismo trying to set lap times.
It took me 6 years to even try a race. This year giving 2 class a shot.
