Location: Oklahoma | Is it worth it? I just got my renewal in the mail and I am wondering if the check in much better than regular membership at the finals? Not that I've ran at the finals, but I can imagine the lines... |

Really no difference in the lines.... Cool perks were a free video, picture (and it seems like something else)... maybe open ride time?
Enter the BBR Gold card race. (You're already there, might as well make a run at some good added $$$$).
Can qualify for the finals after 6 races instead of 8.

Location: Piedmont, OK | I think it was worth it. This was my first year to buy one - got a free video and free pic. I went the 1st day to check in and the lines for regular check in were long. i think it depends on when you go. But I got right in got mine numbered and was done. |

Oh shoot MS I never took advantage of the free video! I wonder if I could still get one?
As far as the Gold Membership goes I really like it although I would pefer the Gold race to be a sidepot and not an actual race. I ran two and one made it back so she ran 4 runs in four days. It's too much for her especially since she is a bleeder and runs on Lasix(she abscessed on one injection site  ). Like MS said the lines aren't a big deal either way. BBR has their check in down to a science. It's a great race.  |

Maybe if they could give you the option to either roll your time, or make a run? Tough show for a bleeder. It seems like they've got to come up with a better solution than lasix someday for those ponies. HOpe she's recovered.

Location: Oklahoma | Thanks! I had forgotten about the free photo and video perk. The six shows vs. eight is my biggest selling point right now since I haven't made a single one this year. Not that they're hard to find, just having a hard time getting to back to running! |

Huh? I was under that assumption that you got an actual video. I never even got a chance to go by their booth.
I'm with you on the Lasix, I wish there was something out there that worked just as well but unfortunately nothing exists. She recovered from her abscess quite quickly so it wasn't a catastrophe by any means.  |

Location: Texas | I'm a gold member and the only difference was I went to a different check-in line. I love BBR but it's a big price difference and considering no one told me I get a free video and picture kinda upsets me, you'd think they would make sure you know. I even went and looked at my pictures. Darn  |

Location: KS | I'm pretty sure the picture and video information was mentioned in one of the BBR newsletters-at least I think that was where I saw it. |
