Sugar Hill
Speedway - What's New
FM System Up and Running
SHS is happy to announce that the FM system is now complete
and will begin use at the first race on May 2. All race teams at
SHS will require an FM radio tuned to 88.1 for all team/ pit
announcements for 2010- (Under $30 at Walmart.) The Race Track
P/A system will not be used in 2010 - so you must have a radio
to know what's going on on race days.
Safety/Rescue Training at SHS
On Sat. Apr. 17 Weare Fire/Rescue conducted a safety training
seminar for all track workers and did a 'simulation' of
emergency handling of a cage kart injury. Management of the
track is committed to providing a safe racing environment at all
times and sincerely appreciates the partnership they've had with
Weare Fire/Rescue and their committed volunteers and welcome
them back to the 2010 racing season at the speedway.
