Don’t miss the three biggest business days in motorsports when the worldwide racing industry gathers in Orlando, November 29 - December 1, 2012, for the 25th Annual Performance Racing Industry Trade Show.
Taking up 700,000 square feet, 1000+ companies will display the latest advances in racing products and race engineering. Engine parts, suspension components, data acquisition, safety gear, new metal alloys and coatings, machining equipment, race electronics...it’s all part of the world’s largest racing trade show.
Arriving from 70+ countries, 38,000 buyers will scour the displays to source the new technology that will be winning races next year. It’s all hardcore racing. No fuzzy dice. No neon windshield wipers. The PRI Trade Show is so big, they can’t afford to miss a single day.
Attendees are pre-qualified. Admission is complimentary, but they must all prove they own, manage or are employed by a racing business. Buyers for tens of thousands of racing retail stores, warehouse distribution centers, professional race engine builders, race car production companies, are making 2013 inventory decisions in each exhibit. They represent the all-important distribution pipeline for racing products. In the US alone, there are more than 400,000 racers, the vast majority of whom are at the grassroots level, purchasing products from their local race store or race engine builder.
