As part of the tribute, all active-duty first responders will receive
free entry to the REV Group Grand Prix during the entire weekend of

the men and women that answer the call to protect and serve our
communities. First responders, including law enforcement, fire,
paramedics and emergency medical technicians, will be admitted free of
charge Thursday, June 20 through Sunday, June 23 by showing valid
identification indicating active service. Free admission must be
redeemed at the gate and is only valid during the event weekend.
Fire and ambulance vehicles from REV’s E-ONE, KME, Horton, AEV, and
Wheeled Coach brands will be on display, allowing race fans to get a
close look at some of the vehicles that equip the nation’s first
responders. “We are honored to have the REV Group Grand Prix as a
platform to recognize first responders. The employees of REV wanted to
share our appreciation for the dedicated people who use our vehicles
each day to serve their communities,” said Tim Sullivan, President, and
CEO of REV Group.
The NTT IndyCar Series (NICS) will take center stage at Road America in
Elkhart Lake, WI, June 20-23, where an international lineup of drivers
will compete on one of the world’s most revered road courses. NICS
Championship driver, Josef Newgarden, will return to defend his 2018
Road America win in a REV branded Team Penske Dallara/Chevrolet. “Safety
is paramount at our track and in this sport, and the fire and medical
team are critically important. Our award winning Road America Safety
Team, which is entirely first responders, have saved many lives over the
years, and we are thrilled that the REV Group Grand Prix gives us the
opportunity to recognize all first responders on and off the track,”
