BLiTZ should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Would certainly provide an opportunity for teams to iron out any last minute gremlins that seem to be quite common these days (you often see a car or two disappear down the pits after the green flag lap). But at tracks with tight curfews, (Oulton springs to mind) the schedule is already tight enough and in light of recent events at Donington it shows how little slack there is even at a place where they can race past 6pm!

Depends what people would rather see, an extra session of BTCC where they're not actually racing and there may only be half the cars on the track at any one time or a bunch of 15/16 year olds scattering bodywork round the place!

On a sort of related note, one thing that's always bugged me is the 'Lunch Break', I know it’s probably of benefit to the marshals as much as anyone else, but aside from them, there's no one else really working continuously. You'd think it was a better idea if the marshals were to take their lunch in shifts and keep the racing going all day.
