It probably won't be that many all out at one time- no one is going to ride solid at track speeds for two hours- they'll be out of fuel or knackered well before that I would think.

When I raced grids were similar to trackday groups of around thirty-ish bikes but unlike 'normal' trackdays fast, intermediate and novice groups. Races were classed with bikes of similar top speeds so with my class of Classic 250 singles, there were Classic 200 two stroke twins Ariels/Bridgestones & T20's), Post Classic 250 two strokes (RD's/X7's etc.) 350 BSA Goldstars (which would just lap the slower bikes) and then any oddities that turned up like Kreidler 50cc GP bikes.

I guess racing is a slightly different mentality from tackdays it was only club level and everyone still had to go to work or whatever after the weekend on Monday- didn't stop the first lap first corner being 'busy' though

For me it was another thing off the bucket list!
