As the 2nd half of the SFG Promotions season races into action with the JEGS Labor Day Bracket Bash September 4-6, SFG is announcing changes to its management team. The realignment will allow SFG to continue to grow and be better prepared to reach long term objectives. The biggest organizational shift comes at the Race Director position. As noted in an earlier press release, AJ Ashe chose to leave the SFG team earlier this month to spend more time competing on the big money bracket racing circuit. Effective today, SFG Promotions is announcing that Brad Miles, long-time team member, will assume the Race Director role. The Race Director has responsibility over everything happening on-track at an SFG event.
 

Brad Miles

Miles, previously in the Race Operations Manager role, has ample experience working with the Race Director to ensure the well run and fair events that our customers depend on. Since joining the SFG team in 2018, Miles has been instrumental in rolling out new technology and operational procedures focused on creating a fair race environment. As SFG continues to deploy more technology at events, racers were already spending time reviewing runs in the tower with Brad. “The choice to move Brad into the Race Director role was an easy one. Brad is one of the most knowledgeable team members we have when it comes to how we run a race and positioning him in this new role will give our racers continued confidence in our events,” said Kyle Riley - CEO of SFG.
 
A bracket and Super Comp racer himself spanning 17 years of racing, Brad has raced motorcycles, door cars, and dragsters throughout his career in both box and no box classes.  While primarily focused on bracket racing, he has accumulated 7 track championships across three different tracks but also has a highly sought after Super Comp Wally sitting in the trophy case.  Brad is in his 3rd season with SFG and has worked alongside the departing AJ Ashe since starting with the group.  Miles stated, " I am very excited to take on the expanded responsibility of Race Director at our events.  AJ and I have worked closely over the past few years and our approach to the management of events were very similar.  From a racer/customer standpoint, my intent is that it will appear nothing has changed in the way our events are conducted and the transition is seamless.  With my previous responsibilities, I spent most of my time in the tower. However, you will see me a little more in the new role as I get around to meeting more of you and addressing any questions that our customers have."
 
Rounding out the SFG Management team with Riley and Miles is Austin Truhler who continues in his current role as Business Director. Truhler helps manage the day to day operations of the company and has responsibility over racer registration, corporate partner / media relations, marketing, and off-track events & activities. “This realignment of the team makes us all excited for the future. Kyle, Brad, and I, along with the rest of our SFG team members, work very well together. Our team knows that every role plays a part in creating a first-class experience for our customers. Team SFG always steps up to the plate to execute,” said Truhler.
