About MyRacePass
I’ve been going to local dirt tracks and following regional series for years, and I’ve tried every racing app out there. Most felt clunky or only covered the big leagues. Then I found MyRacePass (MRP). Honestly, it’s the first app that feels like it was built by people who actually spend weekends at the track. I use it every race weekend, whether I’m in the stands or checking in from home, and it’s completely changed how I follow the sport I love.
Features & Highlights
The feature set here is deep, but it’s the practical uses that won me over. The Live Race Updates are a game-changer; I was at the Short Track Nationals last month refreshing my phone, and the lap-by-lap timing was so accurate I knew about a caution flag before some people in the stands heard it on the scanner. I also rely heavily on the Driver Profiles. When a new young driver pops up, I can instantly see their past finishes and car specs, which makes conversations in the pits way more informed.
Buying tickets through the app is stupidly easy. I snagged last-minute passes to the Summer Sizzler event in about 45 seconds while stuck in traffic. No redirects, no extra fees popping up. The Track Information section saved me once when I went to a new venue; having the parking map and knowing where the concessions were ahead of time took all the stress out of finding my group.
User Experience
Opening the app, you land on a clean dashboard that shows live events, your followed drivers, and news. It’s intuitive. I remember trying to find the schedule for my nephew’s junior dragster class at a multi-day event. In other apps, that’s buried. Here, I filtered by track and class, and there it was. The notifications are the best part. I have mine set to alert me if my three favorite drivers qualify or if there’s a weather delay at my home track. Last week, it pinged me that a driver I follow posted a new in-car video, and I watched it right in the app. It feels personal, not broadcast.
Pricing
The core app is completely free. There are no tiers, no paywalls hiding live timing or schedules. I’ve never felt pressured to upgrade because everything I need as a fan is right there. You only pay for the things you’d expect to pay for: event tickets and, I believe, some series offer premium streaming subscriptions within the app. For a free app, the value is absolutely incredible. It’s worth way more than the $0 price tag.
Updates & Support
I get an update every few weeks, usually with small tweaks like improved timing data for a specific series or bug fixes after a major OS update. They clearly listen to the community. I had a question once about linking my account from the old website, so I used the in-app support chat. I got a real, helpful response in under an hour, which is rare for any app, let alone a free one.
Security & Privacy
I downloaded it directly from the official Google Play Store. The app needs an account, so it collects basic profile info and your preferences (favorite drivers, etc.). I checked its data safety section, and it says it doesn’t share data with third parties for advertising, which matches my experience—I haven’t seen any random ads. The only promotions are for relevant racing events and merchandise. It feels secure for storing my ticket purchases and payment info, which I’ve had saved for quick checkout with no issues.
What kind of live race updates does MyRacePass offer?
MyRacePass provides lap-by-lap timing and real-time alerts, so you can know about caution flags and race events almost instantly—sometimes even before the crowd in the stands. This feature works great for both local dirt tracks and regional series.
Can I buy tickets and find track info directly in the app?
Yes, buying tickets is quick and easy with no hidden fees or redirects—you can snag last-minute passes in under a minute. The Track Information section also includes parking maps and concession locations, which is a lifesaver when visiting a new venue.
The app isn't showing my favorite driver's schedule—how do I fix it?
Try using the filter options to narrow by track and class, which makes schedules for specific divisions like junior dragsters easy to find. If that doesn't work, double-check that you've followed the driver in the Driver Profiles section so their events populate on your dashboard.
I'm not getting notifications for weather delays or driver qualifying—what should I do?
Make sure your notification settings are enabled for the specific drivers and tracks you follow—you can set alerts for qualifying results and weather delays in the app's preferences. Also check that your phone's system notifications for the app aren't blocked.
How does MyRacePass compare to other racing apps like Racing America or Speedhive?
Unlike apps that focus only on big leagues or feel clunky, MyRacePass is built for grassroots dirt track fans and delivers a clean dashboard with live updates, driver profiles, and easy ticket buying all in one place. It feels like it was made by people who actually spend weekends at the track, which makes it far more practical for following local series.
