Totally cool - glad you didn't take any insult to the question; if you have goals of moving up in Cat, then certainly opens the discussion of racing a higher-end bike...tho the whole adage is "race only what you could replace!"
May want to reduce the cost of the bike to budget for a couple pairs of race wheels?
