The annual trip to the PRI show (Orlando Fl) is coming up fast (12/9-11) – anybody else going? I’ll be there from late Thursday to mid Saturday.
A small group of my odd friends came up with a great idea – turns out there is a ‘night DE’ at PBI on Saturday night, we are going down there for some fun under the lights!

So – if anybody wants to meet up at PRI post here or shoot me an email at chris@944enhancement.com

That nighttime DE would be pretty cool. Did I hear correctly that Brian and Rich are renting cars?

Shhhh.....we don't want the rental folks to know....!!!

Is this a trade show or is it open to the public as well? I wouldn't mind checking out the new Garrett turbos in person (and try to get them to make those wheels available on the T3/T4R >:O ).

And the night time DE sounds like fun. Is it going to be in the convention center parking lot? They've made some pretty killer AX tracks there before. If you look up the convention center parking lot on Google maps you'll be able to see the tire marks from previous course layouts.

I will be there on Friday.

It’s a trade show – no public admission. It’s a really serious race industry show, no chrome wheels or stereo vendors. All the turbo manufactures are usually there along with 1000’s of really cool vendors for engine / race parts.

The DE is down at Palm Beach International (the old Moroso track)

Last years ‘race’ the event at the PRI show was a shifter cart race in the parking lot – with F1, NASCAR and sprint car drivers! It was fun to watch the different styles – and those guys were pretty serious!

Is this the trade organization that also sponsors an annual TV event with a competition between chosen examples of top modifiers? Saw it last year and had a hand full of restored/updated Camaros, Corvettes, Mustangs, some ricers and an updated original Cobra. Did a time lap, auto cross, drag race and 0-60 and braking test. Cobra won easy. IF so, lobby anyone that will listen for a P car or two in this years show.......

I don’t think so, the trade show organizers are kind of ‘low key’ since they are really a trade only outfit.

There was a turbo 968 sitting on one of the chassis dyno’s for display and occasional runs. They do set up some chassis dynos in the parking lot.

I'll be there again, probably on Saturday.
