More than 1,000 companies will exhibit in the PRI Trade Show, with 38,000 racing industry professionals in attendance. Both events are part of Race Industry Week 2012 in Orlando.

"It’s one of the most important weeks of the year for anyone in the business of building race engines," said John Kilroy, producer of the PRI Trade Show. "The AETC provides plenty of insight into the cutting-edge of race engine technology today. Then, all the great brand names in race engine parts are on display in the PRI Trade Show. Plus, the famed Machinery Row in the PRI Trade Show offers a full line-up of the latest advances in precision machining equipment. It’s a total package with serious ROI!"
