ProMedia Invests in Electrimotion Shutdown Transmitter for all NMRA, NMCA and NMCA WEST Events

Santa Ana, CA – As part of the ProMedia Competition Department’s continuing efforts to enhance safety at their NMCA, NMCA WEST and NMRA events, an Electrimotion Shutdown Transmitter will be in use at all 2014 events across the country. The installation of the Electrimotion safety device is highly recommended for all Pro Mod competitors in the upcoming season. The device, when used in conjunction with the Electrimotion Safety Box, will automatically shut off fuel and ignition as well as deploy the parachutes once the vehicle has passed the finish line (if the driver has not done so already). The system activates when the car passes the wall-mounted transmitter just past the finish line.

“As part of our ProPledge initiative to our competitors and fans, we felt it was important to invest and implement the transmitter at our races and recommend the safety device for Pro Mod racers,” said Rollie Miller, ProMedia National Event Director. “Our tech department will have the system installed at every event beginning with the NMRA race in Bradenton, Florida on March 6-9.”

These are the same safety devices required by the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) for Pro Mod competitors. Complete product information and listings can be found at Electrimotion, the company that manufactures these safety devices.
