I found out that in Ohio they can hold barrel races without a permit.
It looks like permits are only needed if pari-mutuel racing is staged, but I am not certain.
It makes sense that if there is no on-track betting on the races then the races might not be governed by the pari-mutuel racetrack laws. If there is no betting then it's just a private event.
If BLD was to sell its signal to someone out of the country who wanted to buy it then the money from the sale of the signal could be used to fund the operations of the track.
I understand why the Ohio Racing Commission and other racing commissions in other states exist. There is a lot that can go wrong and there are a lot of cheaters and unscrupulous people in the world.
