As Mike says ... this will not go anywhere w/o board approval. I know Rolf & Willis are supporters of making this happen, but Don Jones (our Race CoOrdinator) & Alan Doerr (our starter) who set up the course and run the show aren't too happy about it.
If you even blink on our current lighting system, it will fail and then you will have a ton of drag boat guys pissed off at you for killing the event.
There is a movement for a new lighting system which will help with this, but w/o board support and speaking with Don & Alan and getting them on board, it will be a hard sell.
FYI, I support you guys. Just some factual insight on how it will work ... and BTW, Brad ... you should bring this to the board ... not Jim Brock ... in my opinion it will be received better by the board.
