Regarding some of the points made in this thread:
As David pointed out, the rules state the allocation requirements for a grid 2 event.
The 36 limit was set because we felt people would not want to drive unless there was at least 10 people on the grid. However, last year one of the main complaints was that 10 people was too small of a grid for people to bother showing up.
Also regarding this:
The server can't handle unlimited grid sizes unfortunately. The 26 grid limit was set because it is the highest allowed in F1.
Now for an idea:
I haven't talked about this with Johannes yet, but what if we were to have "fun" races on non-FSR weekends, open to everyone. The races would be unmonitored, and the results wouldn't be uploaded on GPCOS, but it would be a race at least.

Also regarding this:
Ben pointed out the lag issues: If there are 27 drivers and we allow that, what happens when we have 28... 29... 30 etc.I second what Tim says, Why not open the grid. This could be quite useful for the WS as it's usually one full grid with 1 race. There was preq once and one driver was not allowed to race. Could have just let him race...
