Other than KartMP, Juicebox and Slipstream, these are some mods you should have a look at:

https://mb.srb2.org/addons/obsolete-juggys-kart-fixes.4153/
https://mb.srb2.org/addons/hostmod.2421/
The main things you want from this one are the alternate scoreboard, the vote and restat commands for players, and, apparently, better stability (every server I know uses it). There are also other commands you can try playing with.

This saves stats from the server such as player wins and track records and adds a permanent ranking with ELO, which would be cool, even more if you posted the results as a spreadsheet occasionally.

As for the first three I mentioned, Juicebox makes many changes to make the game faster and less annoying, and it tries specially to give players at the back a chance at catching up with the frontrunners, which would be good for beginners. It's also explained here: https://hyuu.cc/j/
For KartMP, see the picture for a good starting config; I also recommend turning battleaccel on, and haste if not using Juicebox at the same time. And the difference between Slipstream and Pisstream is that the latter, in addition to the drafting mechanic, also adds boost stacking. In vanilla, only the strongest/longest speed boost can be active at one time. With this, boosts from shoes, pads and drifts can all stack and be applied at the same time, making things much faster and also more intuitive. You can decide if you already want to use it over normal Slipstream (or neither).
