Hello Markus,
We have to balance the number of participants with the number of Marshals, who are available for support for the particular drive, to ensure the safety and comfort of the participants.
The current tally at the top reads 48/48, which means that all 48 available slots have been taken, and the later registrations are in the wait list.
We will, now, just have to wait for more Marshal registrations or any member cancellations...
