Safety Solutions to Sponsor Tough Luck Award with CRA this Season

Salem, IN (March 24, 2009) – CRA Super Series officials are pleased to announce that Safety Solutions will be supporting the CRA Super Series and the newly formed CRA Super Series South as the sponsor of the Safety Solutions Tough Luck Award for both series during the upcoming 2009 season. Safety Solutions joins a growing list of companies continuing to get involved with the CRA Super Series and the CRA Super Series South which will have its first ever event on Saturday, April 4th at Watermelon Capitol Speedway in Cordele, Georgia.

"We are very happy to become a supporter of the CRA Super Series," remarked Aaron Zentgraf of Safety Solutions. "I have always been a big fan of the CRA Super Series and really like what they are doing for late model racing. We look forward to working with the teams and improving their safety equipment!"

The Safety Solutions Tough Luck Award will be awarded to the driver who has the hardest crash at every CRA Super Series and CRA Super Series South event during the 2009 season. If there are no hard crashes, the award will go to the second car legitimately out of the event. The award will consist of a $50 Product Certificate from Safety Solutions.

In addition, Safety Solutions will also sponsor the Season Tough Luck Award for each series in 2009, which will go to the driver in the top 15 in series points who had the worst luck during the 2009 season. That award will consist of a $100 Product Certificate from Safety Solutions.

"We greatly appreciate Safety Solutions coming on board to support our racers," remarked Glenn Luckett, Managing Partner of Champion Racing Association. "We want our teams to do everything they can to make sure their drivers are as safe as possible in all our events. Safety Solutions is here to help our teams get those safety devices, we encourage all our teams to take a look at what they have to offer!"

Safety Solutions, Inc began in 2002, making its first head and neck restraint, the Hutchens Device. This Device was introduced into the NASCAR series just before Dale Earnhart’s incident. For the next three years, the success of the Hutchens Device spread to many series across the country.

During those years, Trevor Ashline, the inventor and engineer behind Safety Solutions products, continued his research and product testing to make better head and neck restraints. The Company came out with the D-cel, a strap harness similar to the Hutchens Device, and the carbon fiber R3 Device. At this point in the company’s history, NASCAR developed a standard for testing head and neck restraints, which led to the development of the SFI 38.1 Certification. Safety Solutions immediately certified their R3 device.

As time went on, different series began to mandate SFI 38.1 certified head and neck restraints. There were only two companies, HANS and Safety Solutions that were making SFI 38.1 certified devices. Safety Solutions soon developed the Hybrid and the Hybrid X, which made a large impact in the Drag racing world saving the lives of top drivers, such as John Force, the 14 time champion. Safety Solutions also has developed safety Driver Nets and other products that have helped reduce the risk of the occupant.

With all the testing knowledge, product development and previous experience as a safety restraint engineer with over 18 years experience, Ashline continues to invent products that are cutting edge technology. He has also written many articles for the top racing magazines along with an SAE papers. Lectures for conferences such as the ICMS conference and consulting for John Force racing are part of his resume strengths. With those attributes, Safety Solutions has made their presence in the racing industry a strong one. They continue to make head and neck restraints that are a true testament to safety and offer several advantages over their competitor’s products. They currently have seven SFI 38.1 head and neck restraints, a standard in which no other company can compete with and which sets us apart from our competition.
