Perhaps a board of directors with one seat reserved for a racers representative elected by the racers?
That seems to be what was added with the new Pro Racing membership option for 2004, also an elected commission again. And thanks for the ego boost.

Don't flatter yourself. From what I have seen and heard, your name would never be mentioned in the same sentence as their names.

I owned and raced a SVL Phantom for 3 years. I bought it and set up for A Class, only to have the rules changed 10 months later when Super V Lite was "invented". New rules and increased fees with the promise of being included in the "Super Series". We got less exposure that year than we did as A Class. Not happy, but I lived with it. After awhile it got old and I sold the boat in 2001.......have not even gone to watch a race since.

Boat racing was a hobby - nothing more, nothing less. I had fun and avoided taking it too seriously. I respect MA for his efforts, but he has the diplomacy of a bulldozer.

To me APBA is still the best of the bunch. That doesn't necessarily mean that they are great, but maybe they suck the least of all of the alternatives. Think about it.

Outer, all you have to do is hit the spell check button, if you spent half the time hitting the spellcheck button as you did talking about it,your spelling would be perfect
