Those three things lead together to generating that quality of life, which the town of Speedway is known for.” PREFERRED VENDOR/PARTNER n Allison Transmission www.allisontransmission.com Allison Transmission is a leading designer and manufacturer of propulsion solutions for commercial and defense vehicles and the largest global manufacturer of medium- and heavy- duty fully automatic transmissions that Improve the Way the World Works.
