: : I'm all for another field or two, but I don't think lengthening it is necessarily a solution,
How about lengthing the hours? We knock off early now, another 2 hours/day of matches would handle 70 more, I'd think. Oh yea, and keep the pits open until midnight...

: :A possible solution: cut down on practice rounds and start the qualification matches sooner? Perhaps only 10 or 15 minutes of practice per team rather than 20.
: How about a additional field just for praticing? So we can have shorter pratice round just for the teams with early qualifying rounds, and when the qualification matches start on Thursday, there will still be pratice rounds for other teams on the pratice field. And as soon as every team got their pratice round, we can open it up for competition!
I like this idea.
