Never miss a class call again Empty Never miss a class call again

Geddex has developed a very cool smart phone app that will greatly benefit racers, race track operators, series operators and race fans. It is called the Geddex Race Alert System and has created a lot of excitement since we announced it 3 weeks ago. Its main purpose is to alert racers in a noisy race environment that they have been called to the lanes and what lanes to report to. All of this info coming to your smart phone. Now you do not have to constantly be trying to listen for the class calls from the track P.A. system, just have your phone set on vibrate or make a alert sound when you are called. The call is time stamped so you can go back and see how long ago you were called. Also,(this could save you a ton of fuel money)the track can send you an alert if the event has been cancelled before you leave home or even while you are on the road so you can turn around and go back. The one time download will work at any track in the world that has our system and we already have tracks on board as far away as England. All you have to do is tell your phone what track you want the alerts from and what class or classes you want to receive.
Some of the tracks that have signed up are Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk Ohio, National Trail Raceway, Lucas Oil Raceway Indy, NMRA, NMCA and NMCA West to name a few. We have many more coming on daily. The Android version is available to download now through the Google play store and the iPhone version has been developed and should be available in the next couple of weeks.
More info can be found at http://www.geddex.net/wp/. We can also be followed on Facebook- Geddex Dial-In. If your track or series does not have the system, ask them to sign up for it on our website. It is easy for them to do and easy for them to use. We are always looking for ways to help the racer and this system is not only helpful but can be a big money saver. Thanks!

Great idea Gary. Many of the tracks have less than a spectacular pa system and I know it's easy to miss the call. Cool Idea

Thats Cool Gary. Would be perfect for Trails,since their PA system sucks so bad Rolling Eyes YOU had better not leave YOUR phone lying around though,some of the guy's will hide it so you won't hear the call.That MIGHT give them a chance to get you out of the winners circle maybe once. See you at the races brother. Wink

Thanks Rick, you going to Bradenton? I will be there all weekend to watch the system work. By the way, I seem to be very good at losing my phone without any help. I could hide my own Easter eggs and never find them!

If anyone wants to see the system working, NMRA is using it for the first time this weekend. If you have downloaded the App you can see what it does from home. Just tell your phone you want alerts from NMRA Bradenton event.
