yeah. stop entering in jetski races ;)

seriously though, you might want to consider replacing your lid with a brand new stock lid, with no holes, etc. that is the BEST way to keep a filter clean.

do you still have a snorkel on your quad? if so, you might want to re-route it in a way that it would make it harder to collect water.

i run with no lid on my 250ex, and the only time i ever had a problem was when i got stupid and decided to go into water up until the top of my fenders....twice.

if these dont help, i dont know what will. i'm under the assumption that you race in some seriously deep water.

good luck.
