Hmmm...there are a number of dark horses in the DD grid. All the dealer guest riders, all the people who've already got race experience etc...I think there's a pretty safe bet that those guys will be having their own race out front.
I've seen a few of the 'DSC Regulars' ride and there are a couple of them that I reckon could get up towards the front of the pack and mix it with the more experienced racers...Fil2 and Rattler, NBS maybe, but first time nerves will be a big factor here.
I don't think the circuit is going to help settle nerves either to be honest, there are no long straights where you can relax for a few seconds, draw breath and get your head together, it's all going to be quite frantic on board and the person that can keep their cool and get the better of their nerves under those circumstances is going to do as well as a better rider whose nerves get to them.
