the bc puts on 2 days of racing, which nets them a lot of tv money and all handle for the races. plus factor in sponsorship of the races by john deere, dodge, etc. the bc can afford to pay shipping, especially to those coming in from overseas.

if they (the bc powers that be) want to be a world wide event, they need to treat it like one!
i can see the BC not paying the shipping fees but "win and you're in" should NOT have a entry fee with it.
the BC should be embarassed for saying to the the owner of Spirit One."congrats, you're in the BC that will be $250k please."
