RPG Cup with Age Groups?

Would you enter an RPG Cup if there were age groups? for example:
0-19... 20-24 ... 25-29 ... 30-39 ... 40+... and ... women's group*

Men's age groups would be adjusted so each group has around the same # of people (to the extent this is possible). For example... 0-19 might be split into 0-14 and 15-19 if needed. *Women's age groups will be created if needed.

Ideally, there would be 6-8 groups total. Awards (tags/coppers) would be given to the top 3 drivers in each group... then the top #1 driver in each group could compete against each other for 1st, 2nd and 3rd overall.

I think it would be really interesting to see how this would play out. After all, with the exception of the Olympics, all athletic competitions have age groups. Personally, I have never entered an RPG Cup, but I would enter one if there were age-groups.

Are there other drivers out there who feel the same? Ladies... would you enter a tournament if you only had to compete against other women? What about you top-tier drivers? Would you enter a cup like this?

I will put up all my coppers (40k) to support this contest, but I'm sure we'd need a lot more to make it awesome.

Questions? Problems? Ideas? Please comment!

i also support it, but there will be like 100 in 0-19 and rest 20 at all :D
also how to prove the age of some players? i know we already had this discussion, but i think we should talk about this here too.
