You tweaked my memory: I believe that at Waterloo, the load-in doors are a standard height double door (at least, that's what was used in the past and I can't think of a roll-up door to outside).

The pits and arena are all in the same large open space, so there shouldn't be issues once you're in the building, but load-in and load-out might get interesting.
