From The Executive Editor
What do you need to complete your race program for 2025? A new service provider? What about an additional vendor? Whatever you are looking for, odds are pretty high that you will find it at the PRI Show next month in Indianapolis.
That is the purpose of this November edition of PRI Magazine: to serve as the official guide to the PRI Show. Let’s start with new products. PRI Magazine contributor Mike Magda surveyed a handful of exhibitors and asked them about the new products they plan to debut in Indianapolis. You can expect to see new throttle bodies, alternators, safety gear, expanded applications for fastener kits, clutches, and much more, all in a preview beginning on page 68.
When you arrive to the Indiana Convention Center, begin your visit with a stop at the Featured Products Showcase (FPS). Several hundred products will be displayed in glass showcases that include product descriptions next to them as well as the supplier and their booth number for reference to then learn more about those products or services offered. For a sneak peek of some of these products, turn to page 24 for a special FPS edition of Race Shop.
Adjacent to FPS at the Capitol Connector at the Capitol Avenue entrance to the Indiana Convention Center, just look up. It’s a sight worth checking out with the hanging race car display featuring the new IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar GTP champion No. 7 Porsche Penske Motorsport Porsche 963.
But the PRI Show is more than new products. It highlights what’s hot in the industry, such as sim racing; educational seminars focusing on improving business skills or incorporating the latest technology; encouraging the next generation to get involved in motorsports with the Women in Motorsports panel, Student Breakfast, and Gear Up Girl Lunch all on Friday, December 13, or the numerous conferences and seminars held before and during the Show.
Use this book as your reference of what to see and who to visit. Then, access the PRI App or My Show Planner via the PRI website to schedule the events or seminars you want to attend and receive reminders during the Show so you don’t forget. You can highlight any exhibitors you want to visit, use the interactive map while on the Show floor, or just take notes throughout your visit at the Trade Show.
This November edition was designed with the same thought as our Show: We want your PRI Show experience to be highly valuable and gain incredible ROI. Our focus is to help you prosper. If any of our PRI team members can help you to better achieve your business goals, don’t hesitate to approach us at the Show or stop us if we are walking by. We are there to help, and we want 2025 to be your best year yet!
