Just to hit the large grid situation. LW and MW endurance, with the 54 machines was, to say the least FUN! Sometime around the third lap, LW was mixing in with the MW back markers, and it was a hoot.
If we wind up with two (large) wave starts, great. As the man said, we can deal with that issue when it arrives, but as for being in the 54 bike situation, the track wasn't crowded, and when we got four or five of us in a turn......that's why they call it racing.
Very good discussion gang! I'm enjoying reading what everyone is thinking, as well as why they think that way.
