We are continually upgrading the safety aspects of our facility due to situations we hear and read about which are causing drivers and fans to be injured. The safety of our competitors and fans is first and foremost and it would be foolish not to take notice of the things that can make our facility safer.

The governor believes that protecting the safety of people and property is one of government's basic functions and most important responsibilities. Implementing this system will move us closer to achieving that mission.

We are very excited to continue our association with Thurston Spring Service Inc. and Bill Thurston. We are blessed to be associated with someone of Billy's caliber. He is a tremendous businessperson, but more importantly a tremendous person. Billy has supported weekly racing in the area for many years now and we are ecstatic that he will be continuing his relationship with our speedway.

There may be times when we have to rescue pilots and the less said the better for the safety of the pilots.

“Safety is not entirely dependent and has nothing to do with how many dollars you spend on systems and processes. It's not about money. It's about the people you have, how they are led, and how they perceive it”

I don't like it, just like everyone else doesn't like it, but it's a safety issue, and as much as it bugs us, there really isn't anything we can do about it.
