I think you are missing the point here.  First no one said C class was not competitive.  Of course you are going to race hard to beat the next guy.  There is nothing that says you have to EARN your right to race B class or even A class.  I have placed 13th overall in an enduro before which means I beat some of the AA riders.  That is a choice.  Some people prefer going the distance and some prefer the shorter course.  My hero Kerrie Brokaw started racing by entering the men's B class about 20 years ago because she liked the long course.  Everyone told her to race the ladies class so she could get a trophy.  She didn't want to go only half the course.  She did not have to ride C class first.   People who did earn the right to ride A this year I am beating even though technically I did not have to move up to A.  Since I have ridden a qualifier that was also a National in the Women's A class then I have to race A in Nationals now according to the AMA.  And since there were 2 Nationals in our series I decided just to ride A or I would not be scored in the B class for the 2 nationals.
