What are your thoughts about the Parallel Glider Race

https://www.wagdubai.ae/gliding.php A similar tactic was tried a number of years ago by the hang gliding community... "speed gliding". One of the reasons given for it was that it would be more spectator friendly. I never really agreed with that sentiment - seems as though it gets just as 'tired' for casual spectators after the initial curiosity wears off. As a hang glider pilot, it has it's thrill, but 'let me see how quickly I can get back on the ground', just seems to defeat the purpose of the sport.
