All racing is good no matter what it is. It's a sport. Some are this some are that --well-- If you are looking for ideas for your own sport Certainly look at others and gather what you can to applly to your's , Just dont make your sport commonplace with theirs. Boat racing is Boat racing and i guarantee if the A.P.B.A. ever disolves that will be the end of it. If you have something that you feel doesnt work now or has problems, and you want to start something else to replace it, you will have the same problems as the first with less orginization.
