Apparently, and i will quote from the horses mouth:

 

That hasn’t deterred racers, though. “Four weeks after the launch, we have just over 100 teams registered and many more working on their sponsors in order to get the funding to enter,” Griffin says.

1.Previously convicted dopers that already served their bans

2.Dopers currently serving their bans.

I saw that...and great, I so want this thing to happen. but would it hurt to disclose some of the higher profile entries...are there any or is it corporate weekend warriors who want the first medal?.

wow, with 100 entrants they have already covered the prize money (provided everyone comes up with the full fee). Must be more rich suckers out there than I thought

 

Seems they might just pull this thing off and prove this sceptic wrong ^_^

Could work both ways .... if someone saw x or y has entered that might discourage them.

not at all, just caught up in the mystery and drama of what could be a game changer. The fact that they put out a statement from lawyers confirming the prizemoney was secured means that quite a few people are raising eyebrows. 100 'entries' but very little details on any big names and I'm a little skeptical (do agree on JGR's theory of the groot krokodille scaring off the apsirant weekend warriors).

 

Remember all we have at the moment are some pictures from a launch and a website, the race only really exists once you have confirmed racers and a route. Put them on the startline and it's go go go.
