I understand limiting the number of spectators for a private event such as this, but I think a little higher limit would help.

Have you been to the event?

I think a higher limit would suck. Its already crowded in the good spectating spots where its easy to see the entire race.

Pretty sure you know the answer to that. However, I'm not saying increase the spectator attendance 10 or 20 fold, but maybe just upping it a little bit, but still within reason. Would give the ability to lower the price of spectating a little lower and garner more interest. I'm just trying to look at this from the business POV, as well as just brain storming. Not trying to tell anyone how to run it.

First and foremost:

Unlike the examples cited, The Runway Rivalry and similar events are not intended to be spectator events.

Large crowds in a confined space is just asking for problems. The organizers probably figure this is a simple way to avoid/control that issue.

You're right

Right. It's a matter of security and the additional measures required to manage the event.
