Are the teams listed in descending order based on category?

Unknown said...

yeah, the race is handicapped based on category so the earliest teams are the "slowest" category. in theory anyway...

RMM said...

There is not much of a handicap there.

Unknown said...

rmm, it was not nearly enough (for us). there were some real ringers in those early groups too.
