NASCAR addresses security at annual summit
Jan 16, 2007 3:36 PM
Representatives from NASCAR race tracks across the country met this weekend with security specialists to improve crisis management strategies at the 2007 NASCAR Security Summit in Concord, N.C.
Officials say that the key to race-track safety is better communication among the dozens of different agencies, all of whom are first responders.
The summit's goal is "to deal with any eventuality at the speedways, and make it a more safe and secure environment for all of our fans," NASCAR director of security Gary Gardner says.
It is part of the fourth annual NASCAR Security Summit for security, emergency and operations workers at NASCAR's tracks, as well as local law enforcement officials, firefighters, EMS workers, and others. About 300 people were expected to attend the conference, which was hosted by NASCAR security provider Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies.
