I doubt there is is seperate capacities for the age races. We'd need a week of racing....

I'm keen that I can finally run the latter classes at the titles. I have an evo125, 250 and open, pre85 open, pre 90 125 and open. I have to now decide what to race. Reality is I will probably enter all and see how it pans out as usual   ::)
Brad that really makes scheduling hard :o You also will have to be the fittest person on the planet ;D we are aiming for 15min+1 for all classes although some will be 2 rounds (age races) others 3 rounds

Kenneth if entries support it there are individual classes for each capacity in each age group. The races can be combined eg.<30 & 31-39 125 could be together etc

I will run in Pre 85 250 & all in and if I can have the use of an EVO I will do the 60+

No 'all in' in the Nationals I'm afraid

That's about the only chance I have of placing in the top 3! ;D

Making Room for other names for you to give you an idea of numbers, I've added you in to see what I mean....you are under 59 aren't you Monty?? ;D

to run over 2 days with 15 mins practice for each group, then 3 15 plus 1 lap races finishes us at around 3:40 pm each day.
presentation after this on the Sunday (once all score have been tallied & checked)
assumption -
all classes as per MOMs except
age classes run within evo groups (not additional races)
lap times around 2 mins 10 seconds
7 laps equals 15 mins 10 seconds
additional lap 8 equals 17 mins 20 seconds
20 mins to next start
no delays
practice & round 1 Saturday
rounds 2 & 3 Sunday
requiring clarification -
is 8 laps too much for these bikes / riders ? Heaven run 4 lap races (Lakes moderns 5 laps)
are we going to see the numbers to justify a 3rd day of racing

I like your calculations and hope all goes to plan. It's the slow riders at the back end of each race that need a hurry up-not riding to finish standing on the pegs in 2nd gear! (maybe a sweep rider to chase them up?)
20 mins before start of next race could be tightened up-remember that not all will be backing up for race after race-we leave that to Brad :D
At the Dirt Track car club I belonged to, we found that by putting a lot of prep in getting drivers for the next races all ready to go early tightened our schedule right up and we got through much quicker. (so a holding bay for the later races is a good idea)

As far as race length goes-they are national champs so make them work for it, both riders and bikes AND passengers.

Maybe just make the races 7 laps, 17 or 18min races are a bit long IMO.
I don't think 3 days is a good idea, will mean people travelling will need too long off work.

in addition to previously mentioned & in response to comments posted
Lakes will have the next race on the line & the following race in the grid
your 2 minutes to be on the line starts from the last lap board (all mechanics etc to exit start)
if a rider crosses the finish just in front of the leader they are entitled to finish that lap
race will be started as last bike crosses finish line
no waiting for anyone

Some people will have back to back races, you may have to wait a couple of minutes in between.

Defiantly not. It's an Australian Title meeting. If they can't hang on for eight laps then It's time to get the golf clubs out (or think about what they really do want to win a little more carefully).

The show must go on.
The officials on the day will have the final say.  :)
