Can someone explain why the IGC does not allow ASW20B&C
models in CC WGC? Granted the B&C are slightly better
performing, and some have winglets, but handicaps can take care
of those differences.
It would help fill out contest rosters.

There was no distinction between ASW-20 A,B,C in previous WGC. The carve out comes into play for Argentina where the ASW-20 could be an interesting glider of choice. They have been acceptable in the past and I see no reason to exclude B & C (15 meter) in US Club Class.
Winglets are allowed with a 0.01 handicap penalty not to exceed 1.09 combined handicap.
