Ray -

I think your proposed question only works if you also provide the
definition of the Sports Class and explain the differences between the
two and what the current attendance level is and what the breakdown is
of how many of those attendees would be shifted to another class.
Classing is not something a newbie necessarily understands, either -
especially without context.

Also, polling people who aren't even active racers doesn't make
sense. If you don't race and don't intend to race, then why should
you have any sway over how races are run?
