Someone will eventually suggest it, so I will ask first.  (This is a 
little "thinking outside the box") 

What would happen if there was a day set between the two events?  (They are 
two seperate events after all).  Say run Monday/Tuesday and 
Thursday/Friday.  Event officials are typically there anyway, although they 
would lose the day of rest after the Pro Finale.  (I frankly do not like 
having to take Monday off of work just to sit around.  Whether you run 
early in the week or late, you can take advantage of the weekend for 
travel.)  When you sign up for paddock space, you must also say what day 
you are leaving.  Should be plenty of space for all.

I see course set up as the main argument against.  Is there anyway this 
could be overcome?  If the course is pre-marked (as I suspect it is), is it 
simply a matter of a couple hours of cone placement?
