Mountain Creek Partners With Whelen Engineering

Mountain Creek Speedway has announced a multi-year agreement with Whelen Engineering, one of the most trusted names in safety lighting and motorsports.

This announcement comes on the heels of more improvements and renovations at MCS as the track gets ready to host micro sprint racing for the foreseeable future. 

“We’re honored to have such a company as prestigious as Whelen to come on board and be part of the growing safety improvements at Mountain Creek Speedway,” said track owner and promoter, Adam Stewart. “Whelen lights are at Cup tracks, Indy car tracks and now, they’ll be at our track.”

Speedway communications director, Derek Pernesiglio also shared his thoughts on the announcement.

“As a driver, I always felt better racing at tracks with Whelen lights because we knew if the caution came out right away,” Pernesiglio said. “Now, our drivers will have the added security of being able to see the lights when there is an on-track incident.” 

Along with the new lighting system, Mountain Creek Speedway has seen numerous renovations and improvements to both the staff and internal workings of the speedway. Improvements such as new steel walls and fencing, resurfacing a new surface, the introduction of a new website, observation decks, live streaming of races, victory lane, new office building along with paved grids and scales.
