The card system is new this year, and as such sort of still in it's trial period. From what I've seen it's a good idea and does/will work pretty well. There are obviously difficulties in creating a system that prevents less experienced riders from joining tougher sessions that is easily enforceable by volunteers (tracks with more formal accreditation systems are not run by volunteers like Herne Hill is).
If any of the beginners session regulars who come down a lot, so know the deal but have little desire to progress to harder sessions, wanted to volunteer to be responsible for stamping people's card at the end of the beginners session I'm sure it would be very much appreciated.
