LIVE! from the PRI Show - Page 3

It wasn't that cold at the IMIS show here last year. It's just a cold year. Yeah, it's cold out. It's hot inside the convention center. You don't spend much time outside. This show is HUGE, probably double the size of IMIS. Its obviously good for the manufacturers.

Myron,

We dropped our booth after the first ones in Florida, all our customers would drive to Indy, FL was more of a family vacation destination for a few fly ins. We went to IMIS and continue with this PRI show.

Indy is a great location, maybe a little earlier to miss the snow and ice on 65 and other roads, it would be standing room only.

What happened to my "Live" reporter?? Evidently Chris and his Dad are having so much fun they forgot to report!!

I talked to Larry today Patsy, he was busy buying lots of parts, lol.
For some reason he was easy to spot in the crowd.

I'll bet it has. Beautiful car.

A few more pictures from the show today - the engine was in the Lingenfelter Camaro.

Great crowd today as the aisles were always filled with folks making their way around two HUGE rooms filled with everything from decals and crew uniforms to a multi-angle CNC machine carving a cylinder head out of a chunk of billet aluminum. A lot of new products on display as well, something for just about everyone!

And I got a chance to meet and talk with the "Camfather" himself, Ed Iskenderian at Jon Kasse's booth! He's still sharp as a tack!

Back again tomorrow to visit the booths I didn't get to in the first two days, and then the 12 hour ride home. This sure is fun!!

A look outside from day 3 of the PRI Show. Wet snow that will continue Into the afternoon.

Mike you have a PM

Great to hear Ed Iskenderian is still active. Know there are a number of great looking race cars (Benza's Pro Stock comes to mind) but the Driller Challenger is the most beautiful race car I've ever seen.
