Roy Janson, SFX Motor Sports Vice President of Operations, said April 23 that Formula USA would be happy to use air barriers purchased by our fund raiser and would deploy semi-trucks owned by SFX Motor Sports to pick up and return the barriers to their warehouse location, should the barriers be made available.

Speaking in a late-afternoon phone call to Roadracing World headquarters in Lake Elsinore, California, Janson said “Formula USA is very interested in seeing where this Air Fence would be available, and if it was available for us to use we would arrange for shipping.

“We’re thrilled to see this immediate response from the road racing community on this very important issue, which is rider safety,” continued Janson. “If this Air Fence is available for us to use at our events, at the tracks where we have our scheduled activities, providing that the tracks agree, we would look forward to the chance to use these additional recognized protection devices and we would arrange to pick up and return it with our own vehicles.”
