Split Grid for/against

Its not the first time and i doubt it will be the last but once again this weekend I found myself held up in two of the races by slower class A bikes when I say slower I mean that my class B bike did not have the speed into or out of corners or on the straights to make a safe clean pass on the class A bikes,as they are faster in a straight line so reached the corners sooner and were faster out if that makes any sense!!!

Its easy to say get off the line quicker so your in front but class A bikes tend to have a little more straight line speed and can pull in front.

I think its time that class A had its own grid and class B its own grid, with class A bikes having a 10 second start on the class B or something along those lines after all if a Class B bike can catch a class A with a 10 second start then it will have the speed to pass it safely maybe its something the race committee could look into for next year ?

Any thoughts comments ?
