Events with stunt races should have a land race backup.

Pretty Much what the title says.
But to explain, there is a bug on PC, and I'm not sure if it is universal and on all platforms, but it causes stunt races with 20+ people to have game crashes at the start,during and after a race. The guesstimate is between 25 and 27 being the sweet spot for crashing and in the Annis event today we were waiting a solid 35mins for the 1st of 3 races to start as people kept crashing as our player limit was too high. To fix it in the end, we had to kick 4-6 people to get the numbers down and then we no longer had any issues in the races.
The silver lining to this bug is that it does not affect land races as well. There is plenty of brilliant land races which are viable for an event and many that were previously in events. So for future events, until this bug hopefully will hopefully be fixed, we have backup tracks or mainly use land races. In TEPCOTT we did a round on FISH Back In The Day built with only land race props and it was great for the racing, so there is really no issue of land races not being viable in events.
TLDR: Stunt tracks cause crashes, use land races as reserve tracks or replace stunt tracks in your event.
