So who's going to PRI?
 

Anybody? Everybody?

Billy I pray that our buddy Alan is healthy enough to go. I know he enjoys it. Merry Christmas everyone! Ray

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

My Son & I will be there.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

My plan is to attend PRI

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

We do plan to attend. I have a contrast MRI as part of my check up on Wednesday morning and we're leaving sometime afer that. We plan to be there all three days, as there are quite a few people we need to see. Our sport is in jeopardy of losing even more support.


The other part of it is that PRI is kind of the family Christmas Party for racers. As a life long racer, the Christmas season truly starts for us when we arrive at Indy, see the decorations, and see our friends in the lobbies, lounges, and restaurants.

Alan,
Funny your in the tunnel on Wed. and I'm in it on Tuesday.
I know I have a few birthdays on you, but it seems like the older I get the more I trade time at the dragstrip for time at the clinic.
No PRI this year for me. I'm holding down the fort while my wife and her sisters meet in New Mexico for her youngest sister's 70th birthday.
Maybe next year.
Hope all you guys & gals have a great time.

I plan to attend.
Adger, sorry you cannot make it!
Your favorite Hillbilly buddy from Mississippi has missed you in the past PRI Shows... :D:D:D

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

I'll be there...

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

I'm blessed. It was Stage IV+, in August 2022, the day after my wife's birthday, and I've survived chemo, radiation, and two surgeries. I'm doing PT every week. I'm on a 90 day interval for scans, blood work, and being scoped, to make sure it's not back, gotta get through 2026 to call it remission. I'm coming up on a year since recurrence, I actually was getting scheduled for surgery at the PRI Show last year, Christmas came 5 days early!


Was walking out of the show last year, and suddenly in front of me appears the Heintz Brother's SS/B 69 Camaro. I almost went to my knees, teas welled up in my eyes, my wife didn't know what was wrong. So many times, Mike and I got to speak face to face at PRI, after emails and phone calls. Too many of us are not here anymore.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

I will be there with my youngest son. Looking forward to seeing several racing friends.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

I am going Thursday and Friday

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

We will be there enjoying the show. I will have some goodies for any of my Clients. I know What everyone's race car looks like, but in some cases, I need to find out what our clients look like. Let me know. Lol, at me for too many birthdays. Someday, I will retire from racing, lol had to say this wife was watching me post this ?

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

Will you have a booth? Otherwise how do I find you? I would like to put a face to you as well!!

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

No booth. Maybe next year, I will be at Bobby's interview by NHRA, Cheering him on :) Most likely I will be carrying a hagerty bag

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

The Automotive Engine Rebuilders Association are having seminars on Wednesday prior to the opening of the PRI Show. You do not need to be a member to attend, but there is a fee. Good attendance last year and good speakers. Motor State Distributing is the sponsor.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

Unfortunately, I can't get there, I have a contrast MRI that morning, wife has physical therapy. I'd like to have made it. We'd have to leave at 2 AM to get there for it, too.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

Had a great time at PRI. Bumped into a few class racers but not many.
Show was packed.
Question: does anyone remember the name of the band at happy hour?
Probably the best live band I?ve seen in a very long time.

Kp

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

The PRI show for me was a big success. Attending the Holley FI class, a two day equipment auction and the PRI show all in one week, my car is 15 pounds lighter now.

The educational seminars are mostly very good. After going to a seminar I make up a list of things that might help my program, but most of them don?t apply to class cars.

If you get a chance to go to the PRI, go, it?s a great time to learn and see old friends.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

...and make new ones. Lord knows I did.

Re: So who's going to PRI?
 

We had a decent time. Got a couple of things done for Stock, got a couple of things started for Stock. And didn't get to a couple.


Saw several of our family, got to spend a bit of time with a few, and barely got to wave at others.
