Amazingly, a guy can literally blow away every amateur racer in your area doing 30 mph TTs and then stay a Cat 4. More typically, they often stay Cat 3s. That does strike me as somewhat preposterous, but I suppose I sort of follow the logic. Group racing does require different skills than TT racing does, and you really only get it in mass start races.

Only if you TT off the front in a race.
