    Yeah I was a bit sceptic when I saw the 8 lap races scheduled for us. That was confirmed when we finished our 2nd race at 4:15pm. Even though there were a couple of disruptions these were not very lengthy at all, so even if things did go perfectly we would've still been pressed for time.

    I don't mean to criticize as I know how difficult it can be to run events like this when you are hit with all sorts of unforseen problems but I believe the organisers just have to be a bit harder on the riders, call them up to the dummy grid as soon as the previous race has started and hurry them out for their warmup laps as soon as the track has cleared. 30 races at 2 mins savings per race = an extra hour.

    However I think they did a great job overall, esp marshalling and also forming us up on the grid which like never took longer than a minute before we were off.
