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.

On Sunday Mar. 28, 2010 Sugar Hill Speedway held a Kart Racing Expo at the Speedway with all admissions going to David’s House in Lebanon. Approximately 100 people attended and the admission total was $180.00. Thanks to all for your support of a local charity.

Campers
There is a new camping policy at Sugar Hill Speedway. Campers can only be on the grounds for race weekends. Campers may not be stored during the week. Generators and music must be turned off at night. Our neighbors are very close and we must be respectful of this fact. A curfew will be in place.
