The site is free to use but technically it isnt. Calracing is funded through the takeout. I believe there was a tiny increase a couple of years ago to fund the marketing of racing in California, calracing.com was part of that marketing.
I also believe the same marketing of California racing paid for out of town horses to ship to DM last summer. I believe Cody Autry was the big benefactor of the marketing $$ that were given as an incentive to ship to DM and race at the meet. No $$ given if you didnt get a start. Autry shipped out several horses from the midwest, many got claimed.
I am not up to date on the above details so things may have changed for 2008.
