I agree, they definitely ruined the search feature to the point of being useless. I have actually sent feedback to them on multiple occasions about their search feature and have heard nothing back from them. I guess if you have a monopoly, customer service is not important.

I can say that when trying to search for event names and organizations, putting the entire search field in quotes helps. I tried that with racer names, and it apparently doesn't help, but I thought I'd throw this out in case anyone was curious.
