http://www.rainedout.com/ A text message service to send out "rained out" notifications.

Waynesfield and Brownstown already use it.

Unfortunately, we had to use it for the first time today. It's a great service, though. I hope our fans enjoy having this kind of instant alert.

Here's how to receive Waynesfield Raceway Park text alerts via RainedOut. Text keyword "wrpracefan"(no quotes) to 84483. Data and messaging rates may apply, check with your mobile phone provider.

I sent out smoke signals last night, other ways to know whats going on is to call 1-812-539-4700, the phone usually jams up on raceday but keep trying, you can also check out our website at www.lawrenceburgspeedway.com, or check out our facebook page, or call a friend that has that technology. Either way it is much easier to get the word out than it was years ago.
Thanks, Dave
