LAGUNA BEACH, CA - Racing industry professionals looking to accelerate
business and get a fast start for 2010 will find the task begins this
December, 2009, in Orlando, when the world's largest hardcore racing trade
show opens the doors to its exhibit aisles.

Special events and exhibits by over 1,200 motorsports companies in the
Performance Racing Industry Trade Show will make Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, December 10-12, 2009, the three biggest business days in racing.

 

More than 40,000 racing industry buyers from all 50 states, plus 60
countries, attended the PRI Trade Show last year in the North/South Building
of the Orange County Convention Center, where the event takes up 1,000,000
square feet. Racing retailers, race engine builders, racing fabricators,
WDs, professional race teams and more come to preview the latest advances in
racing products, motorsports engineering and precision machining equipment.

 

The PRI Trade Show is timed for racing entrepreneurs to have the opportunity
to conduct business face to face with racing industry suppliers, receive
hands-on sales demonstrations of new racing products, make purchase
decisions and have the components in stock for the start of the next racing
season.

 

"The racing products and machinery that will provide new revenue streams and
new sources of profit for racing entrepreneurs in 2010 will all be on
display in Orlando," said John Kilroy, editor of Performance Racing Industry
magazine. "It's a remarkable and unique opportunity for racing professionals
to see it all in one hall-thousands of new racing products! There's nothing
like it."

 

But, PRI is more than just a trade show, noted Kilroy. "The PRI Trade Show
offers a full package for racing industry professionals, including a wide
array of special events providing valuable business learning opportunities
as well as the chance to network with your industry friends."
