J ... people love to watch the kids race. Its often like watching a minor league baseball game ... you get to see the stars of the future in their formative years. You may see an incident that makes a particular driver develop a particular habit in racing that continues for decades
C ... because there is almost always a full heat every where, every time. If it were true of every class, the whole thing would be a bore
850 ... even if the reality of high speed isn't there, the potential of it attracts people to watch ... even if there are only 3 boats
It might be that you don't see this because you are on the water ... being watched.
