WPSA Amateur Advisory Board Convenes for the 2008 Season

White Bear Lake, MN (12/20/2007) - The WPSA’s Amateur Advisory Board for the 2008 PowerSports ATV Tour held their first conference in early December to discuss various aspects of The Tour which would aid in implementing positive changes for the upcoming season. Board members exchanged ideas, issues, opinions and perspectives in an open forum where each member’s input was considered, evaluated and recorded for future use in the development of programs which would help the WPSA to implement substantive changes and to increase the value the PowerSports ATV Tour brings to its racers.

Ginger Pittman of Pittman Racing said of the conference, “I feel the Advisory Board is made up of people who actually care about racing, not people who are trying to line their pockets or gain an advantage. I think the WPSA is genuinely concerned about people and will put our ideas to good use.”

The Amateur Advisory Board covered topics ranging from the finalization of the 2008 schedule to class structure, rule changes, practice times, fees, pre-registration, track issues, trophies, throw outs and the existing points system.

“We covered just about every topic you could imagine.” Board member Ron Laurine said. “It was refreshing to hear the input of the members and to exchange ideas and solutions with them that can do nothing but help the series. I, for one, am excited to see the people of the sport coming together for the good of the sport. It’s a win-win situation for all involved.”

A few days following the conference Board Members received a multiple page print out of all the topics covered during their initial meeting. They were encouraged by the WPSA to gather input from other racers and families before convening for their second conference where they will share this valuable information with the board and begin to formulate final decisions concerning the ‘08 PowerSports ATV Tour season.

The WPSA’s Amateur Advisory Board consists of Mark Baldwin of Baldwin Motorsports, Debbie Bartosek, Jody Bateman of JB Racing, Guy Land, Ron Laurine and Ginger Pittman of Pittman Racing.
