rebelracewriter Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Jarrett I think the date thing may be related to the new cars coming for the Street Stock Shootout....and Frank can tell you about rules compliance.....Unless an official checks everyone pre-race(which isn't a bad idea) it's difficult to know for sure who has one, who has it set right, who has it turned on..... I know at Tx Thunder they stop all cars on the backstetch before the feature and two safety crew guys check every driver for safety gear...which could be done to check raceivers......AND BEFORE someone says it takes up too much time...Tx Thunder uses a white erase board for line ups on restarts, starts at 8PM and is done racing in four hours or less, usually less.... **Disclaimer; I am in no way an official spokesperson for the track.....Just my general observation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danielsen Motorsports Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Well instead of pulling on the track and trying to catch up to those doing 2 hotlaps so we can spend 3 laps lining up why cant everyone stop on the front straightaway in their starting position. Eric come across the raceciever with a thumbs up if you can hear him! At that point at least if somebodys was turned down or off they might correct it right then or if not you at least know who cant hear for that race. Just an idea...

Any hand held police/weather scanner will work, they are just bulky. the race receivers are a slim and easy to contain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KISS_Racing Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 I am just curious. Is the price at the track expensive? I had not priced them, but thought Eric had worked to get a deal on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippyracer00 Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 The price is not bad, but I would like to purchase one asap. With three wks off I may want to pull elsewhere. Prolly a good idea to have one n case they require it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Racing Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 The raceiver has been a really great asset to the drivers. WTG I37. Having a pre tech to make sure that everyone has one would be great, and then again at the tech pad would be a good idea.. No one has ever been checked to see if the radio that is being used can only receive the track official. Ever feel that a driver seems to know your very move? (You move up they move up, you move down and they move down)Remember that having a scanner for a receiver gives the driver the capability of receiving info from another individual or their pit crew. (I'm sure that no one would do that??) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for helping me to understand... Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champkrt1 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I have yet to run at I-37, however knowing that they will require racecievers would make me more inclined to go. I see the raceciver not only as an great aid to the racetrack in helping to speed up lineups and such, but a vital piece of safety equiptment. If they help you avoid one accident, they have probably already paid for themselves. BUT, thats just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippyracer00 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I totally agree with u champ. I bitched at first but im old school. Helps n so many ways. From lineup to even overheating.
