As far as discrimination, the one avenue that maybe viable is the pros get free admission into national events and sportsman have to pay.
Pros don't pay an entry fee like we do but they have to be a "space rental" fee. It's not a free ride.

I was told the pros pay big bucks for their spot rentals and all their support vehicles. Been like that for a while now.

Yep. I don' t know if the numbers have changed, but not too long ago, they paid for every space over one space per car. It was $2,000 per space for part-timers and $1,500 per space for those committed to run the full national event schedule. DSR and JFR pay a bunch of money for their support vehicle and hospitality spaces.

Anybody know if the IRS came down with a ruling on this? I sure wish I could pull in $770K for doing something I loved to do.
Wonder if the RICO Act would apply to these cretins? They could probably teach organized crime a few tricks.

Ed, I seriously doubt the IRS even bothered. Think about the timing of the complaint, and who it was addressed to.
