I was thinking about Racecievers today. They are small one way radios that every racetrackI know of requires. They cost about $100.00 and are set to monitor 454000 frequency. The race director or the flagman can talk to the drivers, telling them about problems with their cars (smoking or losing fluids, flat tires, etc.) or warn us about wrecks or other problems on the track. They're an indispensable aid to getting the show rolling and the night of racing winding up on schedule. My question is: Why isn't there an app that we racers (and fans too) could use to receive those broadcasts on our smartphones? Maybe there is and I just don't know about it!
