Speedway Fire Rescue (SFR) would like to take this opportunity to let everyone know that racing is an inherently dangerous sport and we are there to make sure everyone stays as safe as possible. We are not about receiving and accepting awards. We train specifically in motor sports events of different types that we cover and we would not do this if we did not see a need for it. Some of us have been around since the beginning of this organization in 1966 and others come and go, however, as the sport becomes more popular, so do the safety features and technology and the more enhanced technology gets, the more we train to keep up with the industry and the greatest part we all love and why we do what we do is the friendships and acquaintances we meet and have met over the years so:
