^ Yeah. A lot of the problem with cat 5 is you get guys who can in NO WAY sustain a break, but yet they still make them. OTOH though, you get guys who can hang out there all day. Its often difficult to tell if you have either or both of these in a break - so you end up chasing everything down. If you're in the draft, its not so bad though.

The thing that gets really crazy in the higher levels is the accelerations. Out of every corner and up every hill the speed will VERY QUICKLY pick up to even higher speeds than the pack was carrying into the braking area. Then it slows back down a little. Its because of this that the people who can't handle that category are weeded out VERY QUICKLY in the higher levels, whereas in Cat4/5 there are usually guys dropping off at all points of the race from the first lap to the last corner.
