Okay, here's my final two cents on this and then I'm going to shut the
heck up cause I like it when I can keep my mouth shut to begin with.

If you have done 30 races as a cat 4 and you want to upgrade to a cat 3,
and, you've placed in the middle of the pack in your cat 4/5 races, you
might want to think again about upgrading because it don't get no
easier.

Greg Lemond said it doesn't hurt any less you just go faster. But, if
you're placing in the middle of the pack, you likely ain't going no
faster.
:)
Okay, maybe 4 cents worth.

I don't know if I would upgrade someone if they did the required races
but came in 25th or 65th or 90th.

Now race and place in the top 15, well that's something else.
