I think they will take this offer, even if they don't manage to well, with the Showdown rules the  top runners won't really risking to much .... :/
I've seen Shakey in the past suffer a bad start or suffer a slight mishap and battle his way through the pack to victory.
Will be good and make the race abit more interesting. . Although I hope it's just a one of never to be done again

At the first meeting Ellison won the first race but due to a duff battery which needed changing at the last minute he had to start from the back of the grid in the second race. He finished 12th. The depth of the field is a lot bigger than 2000 when we had Ducati 1000cc v 750 4s.
I cant see any of the top 4 runners going for it.

Someone on the cusp of getting in the top 6 showdown might go for it if they got a top 3 lap time from race 1. If they reckon they would finish 5th in a normal situation, they would get 11 points. If they reckon they can get up to 8th starting from the back, they would get 16 points.

The race is also been broadcasted live on free view, channel 'Quest' ..
Is it gonna be on freeview from now on or are they just doing it for this 50k race ??
