PRI Show
The Performance Race Industry trade show (or PRI for short) is held the first week of December every year, and is where all the racing industry gathers to communicate with manufacturers, race sanctions, and other race vendors to learn about new products, and to discuss business and/or sponsorship deals for the 2006 season. Its a chance for racers to get out and network with new vendors, and to sit down and talk with those they already deal with. Open only to those involved in the racing industry,the event is normally held in chilly Indianapolis. This is the 1st year the event will be held in my hometown of Orlando, so I'm excited to get an additional chance to spend time with my family as well. 
Those whom have been before will understand how draining the show can be. Miles and miles of walking, talking, moving and shuffling from booth to booth, running circles trying to see all the people and new products in a 3 day span. Talk about exhausting... and my poor feet have learned many a lesson, so I will be bringing along only the most comfortable shoe attire... to hell with the heels for this event!
Dan just completed John Gullett's new Parker Chassis built Pro Mod/ Pro 5.0 Escort, which will be unveiled on Thursday in the Probe Booth (Booth # 1395). Visual FX burned the midnight oil to get the car painted and completed in time to get there, everyone is looking forward to seeing the display. Dan, the crew and I will be heading down early Thursday morning and have a full schedule of meetings lasting through Saturday night. Here's hoping for much success and new relationships built! Wish me luck, and hopefully I'll have good news to report upon my return!
