Electronic Time Slips

[Ron Ortiz]

So you will be getting a time slip from your phone in the future at some tracks. Most racers check their time slips very quickly to analyze the run. So after a run I just proceed to my pit area and get out my phone. What if I carried it with me so I can check the results at the scales or while waiting at the scales after a loss.
I saw on Drag Racer TV the incremental times being displayed while the cars were going down the track, how cool.
I understand that you need to get an app from the track to get the results of your runs.
Did you know that my phone has the capability of getting near another phone to transmit data.
I saw the other day something about TikTok, my next door neighbor has it as they are circus performers and broadcasts to over 3,000 live. Wow, technology. Seems like you can get an app for all kinds of purposes.
I think I'm going to mount a little bracket on my dash so I can put my phone there for easy access to get my time slips.
