will pay an annual fee to rename the track ISM Raceway starting in 2018. “What ISM is able to bring to the table is a wide range of leading-edge technologies,” says Sperber. ISM’s Connect net- work will provide digital display screens, flat screen TVs and free Wi-Fi throughout common ar- eas, interactive fan experiences, a mobile app, and social-media integrations throughout the facility, including in the new pedestrian tunnel connect- ing the infield and grandstands. “The objective is to create a robust digital en- vironment full of all sorts of digital experiences, many of which will be unique to the property,” Sperber declares. “The way I look at it is from a construction standpoint - we’re building an in- credible brick and mortar environment that will now be able to complement a very rich digital environment to ultimately deliver this 360 degree experience in motor racing that has never been experienced before. I think it’s going to be truly remarkable. They want to create a showplace for technology and we’re going to be a little bit of a laboratory. It’s sort of Disneyland meets NASCAR – it’s full of attractions. And we couldn’t be more excited about that.” Another corporate partner of the new ISM Race- way is DC Solar, a company that designs, manu- factures, and leases portable light structures that THE ISM RACEWAY PREFERRED VENDOR n Delta Diversified Enterprises, Inc. www.deltadiv.com Delta Diversified Enterprises, Inc. provides commercial/industrial electrical contracting and routine maintenance services to local businesses and general contractors in the Western United States.

It’s like nothing else in the industry. I think fans are going to be blown away when they see what we’re creating.”
