This is listed in the CCS news.  Is CCS going to use the air fence for its races??  Given the number of people hurt in T4 2 weeks ago, I assume its a given. Will it be in place for the races at the end of the month?

OEnhanced Safety Program at Summit Point Raceway
PRO MOTION PRESS RELEASE

 
 After long negotiation Team Pro-Motion Sportbike Club was given the green flag to lead the way in providing a safer environment for motorcycle participants at Summit Point Raceway said Pro-Motions president Glen Goldman.  Team Pro-Motion will now cover turn #4 of Summit Point titled "The Chute" with over 130 feet of newly acquired Alpina air modules.  
 


"Pro-Motion will not only be using the new air modules for our own club events, as we have elected to provide any motorcycle racing organization who would like to utilize our safety program at no additional cost" said Goldman.  A special trained safety crew will be dispatched to set up, maintain and break down the safety modules upon the request of CCS, WERA, Formula USA and AHRMA, plus the program will be available for various other club events carrying a small fee.  

Team Pro-Motion has over two years experience working with the Alpina air modules when a decision was made to enhance rider safety at their own club track events.  George Benes the appointed safety director has been successful in seeing many walk away from what could have been much more serious injuries and situations.  The team's investment into rider safety will continue and will remain a top priority.

For further information concerning this safety program contact Team Pro-Motion Sportbike Club at 215-675-6677 or log onto their website at www.teampromotion.com.
