RE.."I'd open the fleet to all drivers."

Our fleet is already open to any and all drivers. The only limitations on non-owner driver is for nationals and that is only for one trophy. There is a specific trophy for the best placed owner who also drives. This leaves the door wide open for any "rock-stars" that want to come in and drive. How many years has Dave Hodges been driving boats without being an owner.

RE..." I don't think raising the weight limit 100# will really increase or decrease participation".

I completely agree and until we hear from owners that say they are not racing because the weight limit is to low, it is only speculation.

Any more thoughts specific to increasing fleet participation?
