The actual rule regarding whipping may be seen here.
In the past, new rules Ohio has approved caused issues with certain out-of-state drivers who bailed out of Delaware quickly after getting nailed with a penalty. It will be interesting to see if any out-of-state drivers bolt the Delaware County Fair as a result of the new rules. Admittedly for some of the Grand Circuit drivers, the fines won't be that much of an issue, but to others it will. The real problem will come if the judges strictly enforce the rule (which they should) which may result in cases going to Columbus when referred to the OSRC.
A bill has been forwarded from a Senate committee in the NJ legislature which will allow wagering from mobile devices at racetracks and in the case over at the forever soon to come American Dream shopping complex. While you can currently do this using your ADW, presumably, it will allow you to wager as if you are on track, giving them a little more revenue. It's not exactly a game changer, but in NJ, every dollar helps.
