No, it probably isn't perfect, but I think it works.

Also, how many incidents have there been on the first few corners of any DD races? Probably not many. It would be far worse if the faster field started behind the slower field.

And another thing, fair play to those guys (and girls!) on 538s gridding in front of some of the 620s!

the ice cream man has it..............it does work and if it continues like this it still will work.....not such a bad thing

no I can't imagine it based on oulton any rider outside the top 10 in class A would take 3 to 4 laps to catch anybody in the top 15 of class B
so that hardly constitues 15 riders on 620s going through a field of Class B bikes.
What those 10 riders do constitue is 25% of the grid which if I'm not mistaken is a minority.
and with the field spread out after a couple of laps then surely those on more powerful bikes aren't going to have to much of a problem picking off the odd 583 here and there

thats the way i would do it,

Failing that..combined grid with a 10 second delay.......

Fastest class being 620 of first

Agreed, I think that is the most pragmatic solution for all involved.

haveing raced on seperate and mixed grids i havent real had a problem with it yes i know im not running at the back and iv had a few 620 bikes get in my way when iv been chasing people down but im happy to race thats what im here for. i have a massive smile on my face at every round iv left so far i love it.

just looking at BSB you have two races with in a race you have BSB and privaters cup and rides get mixed up there okay not to the same extent we do but


Im real happy with this racing it doesnt cost the earth everyone helps eaxh other out. iv leant so much about racing, i know theres problem with a mixed grid but i think it work at the moment and i for one havent real had a masive problem with it.

lets get some more rides and then we can push new era again

You lot whinge too much Split/seperate grids would be lovely, but it's not going to happen. I'd rather be out with the rest of the DD field than CBs or Hornets, I like being amongst all the smokey Ducatis It's not ideal, but it'll do just fine thanks

If the straight line speed is the problem can I suggest NickB is given a weight handicap
